Little is known about the Willoughby Brothers shipbuilding yard based in Plymouth, Devon, England. It had a 200 foot berth, an engine works and a foundry. It mainly built tugs, coasters, Saltash ferries and Blackpool excursion steamers. It was sold to new owners at the end of the nineteenth century and closed in the 1920s.
