Mary Rose
The Mary Rose was an English Tudor carrack launched c.1511, substantially rebuilt in 1536, and serving as a purpose-built warship until she sank in 1545. A surviving section of her hull and thousands of recovered artefacts were raised and conserved; the remains and finds are displayed at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard.

As it stood in 1545
