At the bottom of the Thames Estuary in Southend-on-Sea, lies the wreck of the 17th century warship with a tragic and untold story: the London. #SaveTheLondon
They are indeed back on the Thames, or should we say they are back "under" the Thames.
Diving to save artefacts from destruction is underway thanks to the generosity of the public as well as support of @DiveMasterIns and @DPWorldUK#LondonShipwreckProject#SaveTheLondon
At the weekend the team dropped it to @SouthendMuseums to see "The London Shipwreck -Her Final Voyage" exhibition - well done to all involved. Great to see the gun carriage on display. So much more still on the seabed that needs to be saved #LondonWreck1665
The London Shipwreck: Her Final Voyage
Southend Central Museum
Opens 31st May 2025.
This new exhibition focuses on the last voyage that objects from the London shipwreck undertook before reaching @SouthendMuseums#LondonShipwreck1665#SaveTheLondon
Holy cow.....we made it to 100%
Thank you to everyone involved in supporting the appeal to get the London shipwreck volunteers back on the #Thames
Without your support we would have risked zero visits to the #HeritageAtRisk#ProtectedWreck this year.
The team thanks you all !
Over the weekend we made it to 97% of our target thanks to wonderful and generous donations.
All the funds will be used to get the volunteers back on the #Thames and get the London Shipwreck Project back on the #ProtectedWreck
Can you help?

😢We were sad to learn that Joyride has been grounded.
She needs a new engine. After many many years service she needs some help to get back on the #Thames
Can you help get Joyride back up to speed?
