More Cornish history exhibits will be introduced at the museum
|
The number of people visiting the National Maritime Museum at Falmouth has fallen by 20%.
Managers say they intend to include general Cornish exhibits to draw more visitors to the museum.
Officials say the fall in numbers was expected, but nearby businesses say they are disappointed in the fall in the number of customers.
The museum's director, Jonathan Griffin, says calls have been made to make the attraction less boat-centred.
He hopes to include more Cornish vessels and history in its next exhibition.
