Eastney Gas Engine House stands on Henderson Road in Eastney, a neighbourhood in the southern reaches of Portsmouth. This Grade II listed building was once a municipal pumping station and now operates as a museum run by Portsmouth City Museums. The structure preserves a collection of historic stationary engines and pumps that powered the city’s water and gas infrastructure in earlier centuries. Visitors can explore the engineering heritage on display and learn how these machines served Portsmouth’s growth and development.
The museum opens to the public on the last Sunday of each month from 11:00 to 17:00, with free admission. The site’s website at portsmouthmuseums.co.uk provides full opening times and details for planning a visit. Its location on Henderson Road makes it accessible to those exploring Eastney’s industrial past and Portsmouth’s maritime and engineering history.
