Ramsgate Maritime Museum, Maritime museum in the Royal Harbour, Ramsgate, England.

The museum occupies the Clock House on the quayside, featuring four galleries dedicated to navigation, fishing, lifeboats, and regional maritime development.

Built in 1817 by architects Benjamin Wyatt and George Louch, the Grade II listed Clock House building serves as both museum and historical structure.

The museum displays artifacts from Goodwin Sands shipwrecks, including items from HMS Stirling Castle that reveal life aboard British warships in 1703.

The facility expects to reopen in 2026 following extensive renovations to transform into a modern museum and heritage center for the community.

The Clock House contains the Ramsgate Meridian, calculating local mean time at 5 minutes and 41 seconds ahead of Greenwich Mean Time.
