The nine state-of-the-art galleries include ‘Mudlarks’, an interactive educational area for children and ‘Sailortown’ an atmospheric re-creation of the streets and alleyways of riverside Wapping as they would have appeared in the early nineteenth century. | www.museumindocklands.org.uk/English/YourVisit |
