Mary Rose

The National Heritage List for England records Mary Rose as a protected wreck. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

The Mary Rose was a 16th-century English warship that sank on 15 July 1545 during the Battle of the Solent, off the south coast of England. She was lost with most of her crew, though the exact number of casualties is unknown, and she remained submerged until her rediscovery and partial raising in 1836, with a more complete salvage in 1971. The wreck and its contents are significant for providing insight into Tudor naval life and military technology.
