To mark the anniversary of @MaryRoseMuseum sinking 19th July 1545 we had the privilege of taking our fantastic team of staff and volunteers again to visit the wreck site. As some missed out last week due to working. Such an emotional experience

Join us as a wreath is laid at the grave of one of her crew members here in the Cathedral.

Olympic bows have a draw-weight of 48.5lb (men's) and 33lb (women's).
Mary Rose longbows had a draw-weight of between 65lb and 160lb, mostly between 90-130lb. (Though tests in 1982 show they're now around 60lb due to centuries under the sea!)

The ceremony, which incorporated elements of the original burial service held in 1984, was attended by members of the Mary Rose Trust and the cadets of TS Mary Rose in Basingstoke.
What a pleasure to be a guest at @portsmouthmusic Song Scape concert last evening. 🙏 Sue Beckett & team for an incredible evening & to all the schools who took part. Loved seeing @MaryRoseMuseum “Living on the Mary Rose" being performed & how much fun the choirs were having.
