This former naval ammunition facility offers spectacular views across Portsmouth Harbour and is becoming a thriving creative and cultural hub.

Next steps

Proposals are being developed for the remaining heritage buildings, possibly offering a mix of uses like hotel or conferencing facilities, food and drink outlets, small offices and craft workshops, and education and/or community uses, along with new homes.

About Priddy’s Hard

The Explosion Museum of Naval Firepower and the popular Powder Monkey micro-brewery housed make the most of the historic buildings and the heritage of the area. Meanwhile Carpenters’ Yard is being transformed into a dynamic hub of creativity, providing studios for artists and the development of new public spaces.

Priddy’s Hard is also surrounded by ramparts that form a scheduled ancient monument and form part of the historic “Gosport Lines” fortifications.
