The visitor centre at Dapdune Wharf is the centrepiece of one of the National Trust's most unusual properties, the River Wey Navigations. A series of interactive exhibits and displays allow you to discover the fascinating story of Surrey's secret waterway, one of the first British rivers to be made navigable. See where the huge Wey barges were built and climb aboard Reliance, one of the last surviving barges. Children's trails and special events run throughout the season. River trips available, weather permitting.
