Polperro Harbour Trust

Polperro is a Trust Port which is managed by volunteers elected from the local community.

The Trust was established in 1894 by a separate Act of Parliament. We do not receive any Government funding so our operating and maintenance costs are sourced from income such as mooring fees, property rent, income from the Heritage Museum and your generous donations.

What’s Afloat in the Harbour

Harbour News

Polperro’s fishing heritage is under pressure following the closure of the Plymouth wholesale fish market in 2024. The loss of a vital collection service left local vessels facing tough choices—but a new community-led solution is helping to keep the industry afloat.

More than 50 locals gathered for the annual Mike Pengelly Memorial Darts Tournament, honoring the former PHT chairman who passed away in 2022. The event was a fantastic tribute, bringing people together to raise a glass in his memory.

We’re excited to offer a retail unit for rent at Polperro Harbour, available from the beginning of April 2025.
