A unique piece of infrastructure built in 19th century. The museum contains display of all the materials which were used in that barrage. It also contains sample model of barrage which clearly displays complete barrage. Another room contains pictorial evidence of barrage construction of that time. It's worth visiting such an amazing built barrage.

An engineering marvel built by the British rulers from 1923 to 1932 having foresight for the future was named "Lloyd Barrage" for George Ambrose Lloyd, Governor of Bombay province, with 7 canals, three on the right side of the mighty Indus river & four on its left side brought green revolution in making the Sindh province a fertile valley.On the left bank just at 100 yards from the barrage itself is "Lloyd Barrage" museum,a well kept,neat museum provides information about the construction of this magnificent project.One can find,model of the bridge with enlarged photographs of different stages of construction of this mammoth structure to harness the water of INDUS RIVER. The two things would have been useful for future time,one width of the road o passage on the Barrage ,second agate for passing the boats,cranes & tall structures from down to upstream.My father was having fond memories & pride for working in this project.Any person who wants to visit this place must arrange his guide,accommodation preferably in nearby hotel.The security arrangement specially the visitor from occidental countries.City of Sukkur has become very congested with unruly traffic because of traffic jam due to bad roads & animal carts etc.One should take care in consuming eatables.water supplied by the municipal carp[oration is dirty & unfit for drinking.An acquaintance will ease the worries of boarding,lodging,security & sight seeing.

Small but amazing museum tracking the history of the Barrage built to channel water throughout Sindh. An amazing feat of technology. The Barrage was built during the British Raj from 1923 to 1932 and was named Lloyd Barrage. Still in full working order
