We had a fantastic couple of days diving the #ProtectedWreck Hazardous with @archsoton50.bsky.social . I think we had find of the season. Can you guess what it is? #NavalHistory #Archaeology #Shipwrecks #RoyalNavy

The YouTube version of the latest History Hit doc on the Northumberland has just been released. A great balance of the history and archaeology of the ship and the need to do much more while it is exposed on the Goodwin Sands. #NavalHistory #Archaeology youtu.be/UsWFfv6-jiM?...

Day 3 and 4 recording landing craft at Forton Lake with @archsoton50.bsky.social students. Plans are coming together nicely. #Archaeology #MaritimeHistory #CoastalHistory

@seaspitfires.com and other WWII experts, were some LCAs converted for carrying fuel. A LCA at Forton Lake has fuel tanks in the space where the troops were. See images. With @archsoton50.bsky.social #Archaeology

Day 2 recording Second World War Landing Craft Assault (LCA) at Forton Lake, Gosport with @archsoton50.bsky.social students. #MaritimeHistory #Archaeology

@malholden57.bsky.social where were we today with @archsoton50.bsky.social ?

Last week @archsoton50.bsky.social maritime students were exploring the #ProtectedWreck Hazardous, a 60 gun warship, lost in Bracklesham Bay in 1706.

A game of spot the difference on the #ProtectedWreck Hazardous. Images show the same area of the forward hold, one from 2019 and the other 2025. There has been no archaeological excavation in this area, all natural. #Archaeology #NavalHistory #MaritimeHistory #Shipwrecks

£15m Heritage at Risk Capital Fund for Historic England to give grants for buildings, gardens and scheduled monuments is good news. I hope one day shipwrecks will receive similar. In my quest to make shipwrecks visible checkout #ProtectedWreck Hazardous latest video youtu.be/mSg1lhLW-M4?...

A brill day filming with History Hit, @thehistoryguy.bsky.social and Simon Stephens from the National Maritime Museum and Chatham Historic dockyard. Comparing 70-gun ship’s models with what we are finding on the #ProtectedWreck Northumberland. #NavalHistory #MaritimeHistory #Archaeology

Can anyone help @cathrynpearce.bsky.social identify makers mark from spoon recovered from the naval wreck HMS Brazen 1800?

The trestle-tree we recently found on #ProtectedWreck Invincible is likely to belong to the main fighting top. Why? Well, we also found the main and preventer stays in 2019. Newspaper articles from March 1758 report the main mast was cut away. #NavalHistory #shipwrecks #Archaeology #MaritimeHistory

Interesting open access paper on the C13 'Mortar Wreck' by Tom Cousins of @buarchanth.bsky.social #MaritimeArchaeology #MaritimeHistory

Continuing with the theme of early 18th century warships here is a link to a film of the latest discoveries from the #Protectedwreck Northumberland. Lost on the Goodwin Sands during the Great Storm of 1703. youtu.be/waQ74rMCZE0?... #NavalHistory #Archaeology #MaritimeHistory #gunnery #cannon

Asking those in the know: was it normal to drydock a carrier with aircraft aboard? Paging @navalairhistory.com

As we plan for the 2025 diving on the #ProtectedWreck Hazardous, here is a short film highlighting the 2024 excavation of the gundeck youtu.be/1nLAoHxqH4o?... #NavalHistory #RoyalNavy #MaritimeHistory #Cannon #Archaeology #Shipwrecks

Already longing for the new diving season so we can continue our excavation of the gundeck of #ProtectedWreck Hazardous. In the meantime here is a reminder of what we have done so far. #MaritimeHistory #NavalHistory #Archaeology #Shipwrecks #cannon #Gunnery

During recent dives on the rudder of #ProtectedWreck Invincible we came across another 5 metre long timber. Not sure what it was, I asked friends at the NMRN and they ID as a trestle-tree. These supported the fighting tops. A very rare find @hefinmeara.bsky.social #NavalHistory #RoyalNavy
