Relaxing of official regulations allowed our exhibition 'Shipwrecks, Sailors and Seaweed' to open in time for Portaferry’s Gala Week in July with the usual social distancing and other precautions.  We were delighted with the number of visitors, young and old, and with the many positive comments they left.
