The Mary Rose
The Mary Rose was a Tudor Warship and Flagship in the Navy of King Henry VIII.

Tragedy struck the English Fleet at the Battle of the Solent in 1545. While repelling a French attack Mary Rose's open gun ports flooded, and she sank. 90% of the crew went down with her as they were trapped under the anti boarding netting.

Rediscovered in the 1960s, and recovered in 1982. Archeologists found a time capsule of Tudor warfare and life.

Now you can see the remains of Mary Rose in this excellent and award winning museum full with thousands of Tudor artifacts.

Launched in 1860, Warrior was the most heavily armed and feared ship in the British Navy. This Iron Clad Ship patrolled the channel and served as a detterant against French attack. She has masts and sails, but also a powerful Engine room.

However, the Victorian era was one of rapid development and industrialisation and Warrior soon became obsolete. Warrior truly was the end of Warships under sail.

Eventually becoming and oil refueling vessel
until the late 1970s. In the 1980s she underwent an incredible restoration project, and you can now see Warrior returned to her 1860's glory.
