Hythe Pier Museum

Opened 28th June, 2025

The museum showcasing artefacts and photographs of the historic Hythe pier, train and ferry has been officially opened on 28th June, 2025

The idea to renovate the former Hythe pier generator room came from Allan Fairhead, who founded the Hythe Men (at the pier) in 2019. Allan, who was also a former councillor on Hythe and Dibden Parish Council, sadly passed away earlier in 2025 before he could see the end result. An "Allan’s Yard" signpost has been added as a tribute to his work, which included being recognised in the UK Men’s Shed Awards.

The museum & shop are manned by volunteers, but the intention is to open on Tuesdays (Market day) and Saturdays (during the summer). Please check our facbok page or contact us if you want to confirm opening times before travelling
