About The Pumphouse Educational Museum and Rotherhithe Heritage

The Pumphouse Educational Museum incorporates The Rotherhithe Heritage Museum and the Lavender Pond & Nature Park, and is a unique resource in the Surrey Commercial Docks area of Rotherhithe. The Pumphouse was built in 1929 to regulate the water level in the Dock System. When the Surrey Docks closed in 1970, 350 acres became derelict and 270 years of tradition came to an end. The building was refurbished in 1989 and the Heritage Museum opened in 1991.
As a charity, overseen by a board of Trustees, the Head of Centre in the last eight years has ensured the success of the project by expanding the education for schools programme, raising the profile and managing the progress of the Centre, gaining support of grant funding organisations and in doing so, broadening and developing its potential.
In expanding the education service to include those children with special needs, providing education in ecology and conservation for and setting up a reminiscence and communication service for older people in residential homes, the Pumphouse has achieved its original aims.
