Shipbuilders' Square

Shipbuilders' Square is home to a community stage for concerts, plays, markets, buskers and general festivals which take place regularly throughout the year. Parking is available on Wallace Mews, at Shipyard Commons and in the Pinnacle Hotel.

Shipbuilders' Square commemorates the thousands of men and women who worked in the shipyard from 1906 -1992. Over 450 ships were launched from this site during the many years of the historic shipyard operation including merchant marine vessels and Victory ships.
