Summary

This collection comprises photographs taken between 2007 and 2011 from the artefacts dataset of material recovered from the Mary Rose wreck site. The Mary Rose was the flagship of King Henry VIII. Having been commissioned in 1510 and launched in 1511, it served under King Henry for 34 years before sinking in the Solent during The Battle of the Solent on 19th July 1545. Despite some Tudor salvage in the 16th Century and later savage in the 19th Century, the hull and her contents remained largely undisturbed until 1965 when Alexander McKee formed Project Solent Ships with a view to rediscovering the location of the Mary Rose. This led to the locating of the wreck, excavations on the wreck site and the recovery of material between 1970 and 1982 and ultimately culminated in the raising of the hull on 11th October 1982. The Mary Rose and her collection are a formally Designated collection of international significance and are cared for by the Mary Rose Trust. This subset of data chosen from material recovered from the Mary Rose wreck site has been used as a proof of concept for the Unpath’d Waters project which explores how the UK’s maritime collections could be united. Other material recovered includes Timbers, Samples and Human Remains. The Mary Rose Trust also holds an archaeological archive and Secondary Collection of material about the Mary Rose acquired outside of the excavations (not included here).
