Once the home of the Poole lifeboat, this nineteenth Century building is now a small R.N.L.I museum. The main exhibit it the former Poole lifeboat, Thomas Kirk Wright, which was built in 1938 and launched from the lifeboat house until it went out of service in 1962. This boat took part in the Dunkirk evacuation of 1940. Poole’s current lifeboat is kept afloat in the harbour ready to serve the many sailors and holiday makers that visit the area.
