Fancy a friday night in beautiful Cromer? I'm talking about the wreck of the Gloucester in 1682 on Friday 21 March, at 7.30pm to the Friends of Cromer Museum - details here federation-norfolk.co.uk/diary.html All welcome! Norfolk Museums The Gloucester Project



Built c 1670, this elegant barge, located in the Victory Gallery at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, originally served as a state vessel for King Charles II. The barge’s most significant moment came in 1806, when it carried the coffin of Admiral Lord Nelson along the River Thames for his funeral.


Always look up… this ship is at the end of Trinity Almhouses on Mile End Road..built 1695 to provide housing for “28 decay’d Masters & Commanders of Ships”. The original marble 42-gun Stuart warships are in Museum London ℝ𝕚𝕡𝕡𝕖𝕣 Kate - Short For Bob ✨️
