Norfolk Wherry - Albion
Model Scale 1/2" to the foot The plans were purchased from the Albion Trust and I visited their base in Ludham, Norfolk to get details.
The Albion is a Norfolk Wherry. Built in 1898, she served as a trading vessel and then as a lighter until being acquired by the Norfolk Wherry Trust for restoration and preservation in 1949. Since 1981 she has been moored at the Norfolk Wherry Trust Wherry base at Womack Water near Ludham. She is listed on the register of National Historic Ships in the United Kingdom.
