Building works start tomorrow…..

View from the Visitor Centre                      View from within the Hatchery

We’re busy preparing for the big knock through tomorrow, from the Visitor Centre into the Hatchery.  The idea is to give the visitor a more ‘up close and personal’ experience with the baby lobsters. 

The viewing area will allow you to look directly into the holding trays where the juvenile lobsters are grown on.  We are also expecting a new broodstock tank for our maternity ward, which will have an acrylic side panel, allowing you to see the eggs on the underside of our mummy lobsters.

The visitor centre should only be closed for one day (19th January 2011), while they knock through the hole and after that, we can remain open while the rest of the work is completed.  Watch this space……..
