New Insights Into Items From The Mary Rose
By Stephen 14/12/2010 12:59:00



Mary Rose under preservation

Two major areas will provide new insights into items from Henry VIII’s Tudor warship by facing them against the interior of the ship itself at thenew £16.3 million Mary Rose Museum.

Speaking in a video update on the progress of the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard development, which is expected to be completed in 2012, Exhibition Co-Ordinator Nick Butterley revealed a series of tiny models being laid into cases in a separate storage area at the naval attraction.

The first area, on the ground floor, will be one of six galleries showing items by type and themes. The Context Gallery, on the two upper levels, will then position exhibits in the areas of the ship where they would originally have been found.

Craftsmen have had to rework some of the artefacts because of damage or decay, including saws and scalpels used in battle and by medics onboard the ship.

“We’re trying to make sure everything captures the eye and works together as a story,” said Butterley.

“It’ll be a real experience, not just the traditional one of looking at the showcases and reading the labels. You’ll feel like you’re immersed in the ship itself.”

New Mary Rose Museum takes shape



Wednesday, December 15, 2010  |  Featured, News

The Mary Rose is now housed in Portsmouth Historic Dockyard.  Built between 1509 and 1511, she was one of the first ships able to fire a broadside, and was much loved by the English King Henry VIII.

She sank during an engagement with the French fleet in 1545, and her rediscovery and raising were seminal events in the history of nautical archaeology.

The Mary Rose 500 Appeal Video below shows the exciting new museum that is to be built over the next 2 years.

One of our favourites is this time lapse video of the start of the building of the new Mary Rose Museum.   This video shows the time lapse from 11th September 2010 to the present day as the initial building work begins. Watch as the Naval Ships in the harbour come and go, rising and falling with the tide and all in the shadow of HMS Victory.

Towards the end of the video witness the first buildings being demolished on the far side of the ship hall and the snow which recently blanketed much of Portsmouth.
Time Lapse – the building starts
