I remember being late for school the day they raised the Mary Rose.............What a chewing i got from the teacher. Although it was history unfolding before our eyes it was lost on that old jobsworth......Happy dayz
They raised the Mary Rose on October 11, 1982. My birthday. What made it so special to me was I was a Canadian flying into the U.K. to visit my Grandma when they raised it. One day I hope to visit her (the Mary Rose); my Grandma is long since deceased. lol
I'm reading Ruth Goodman's How to be a Tudor right now and she references the Mary Rose quite a bit in regards to how much knowledge it was able to provide about the Era. I'm so glad you posted this video so I could see it all for myself 😊
I recall walking up to this very nice man in 18th century garb in the carpenter's shop and telling me about my problems carving ball and claw feet. He gave me about half an hours advise on how to mend my mistakes. It was marvelous.
Loved this ..... I have been to the exhibition (museum) the work that has gone into preserving and displaying these artefacts is amazing. If you ever get a chance to go , you won’t be disappointed! Superb !
I do living history of mid to late eighteenth and early nineteenth century. Much of what’s seen there didn’t change much two centuries later. Thank you so much for a fine vid on this.
Thank you, Harry, for sharing with us! It does make the mind turn to think of recreating some of those items, or figuring out how they were made in the first place.

So neat that every object has a story. I wonder who that guy was that lost the chalk line.
Hello Harry, I was watching some documentaries on the salvaging of the Mary Rose when I ran across a youtube done by you. I was particullary drawn to your observations regarding the tools and chests. Thank you for your videos. Please take more day trips. Alan from Dublin Ohio.
This was wonderful! Have just finished a novel where the main character was on the Mary Rose when she sank. But so many details are provided about the ship, and your presentation is much appreciated. It would be wonderful to visit the Mary Rose.
Thanks so much for filming the artifacts!! Was a joy to see in a more 3D type of view, the books I have been able to get have good pictures but it doesn't quite come across as well?! The ship was quite a find and a lot of lost information was recovered along with her. Fascinting stuff!!!
See the first novel in the series of Tudor adventures, OUT OF THE BLUE - An Oath Revealed. By Ray Morris, Published 2015. Two young brothers who survived the tragic event aboard the Mary Rose on 19th July 1545. Their incredible adventures began. The 2nd edition out soon. Contact the author for more info.
Thank you for your travel log videos they really show what is out there and what can be done That is more important then a lot of the technical videos on you tube.The seed must first be planted in order to grow..Suggestions are what starts the first ideas!!!
The unknown item looks to me like it sits in a hole because the bottom of it looks that way, like it is held. Then, rope can be set at varying levels up it, and leading to something else. Nothing of any power of course so it'd have to be a guide. But it allows leeway for something essentially. There's even wear at the deepest part of each triangle that suggests rope being used with it I think. Look closely and you'll see ruler guide marks on the right of the artefact too. Maybe it was something used to set the angles used with the sails or angles used to aim the guns or set an angle for the rudder. Something along those lines I think. Something that benefits from quick and even adjustment increments like that... (I'm a goldsmith, figuring things like that out was essential when I was mainly doing repairs to classical jewellery, rebuilding catches and snaps and such while keeping the original look and functional aspects of the piece)
I really appreciated this video, but there were times I wish you hadn't rushed the camera past some things I'd have liked to see more of. I, too, am interested in leatherworking and wood working.
Hi Harry, Thank-you for posting this film, I am of the age that watched avidly every episode of Blue Peter in the early 1980's when they followed every step of the raising of the "May Rose" Although it was very interesting back then it didn't go into the detail about the everyday tools as you did in this film. Well done. N.
I’m always surprised that no one ever tried to build a replica ship of the Mary Rose and do some sea trials to greater understand why she sank. Naturally don’t let it sink but you can still test stability and handling methods
Harry, in this video you show rulers marked with the "Tudor Inch". I noticed somthing on the news that the ship the "Vasa" was slightly banana shaped, they think that this was because the craftsmen on each side were using different types of ruler. www.vasamuseet.se/en/About/News/The-Vasa-ship-is-lop-sided/ Seems obvious but we still make these mistakes Check out "the Mars Climate Orbiter" 1999 - metric / imperial or SNCFs 2000 "fat trains" which were in the news last week.
Harry, If you ever make it to the States, you must come see Colonial Williamsburg. They have artifacts there and also actual functioning shops where things are made using 18th century techniques all by hand. It is in Williamsburg. Frank
This is how a museum review/walkthrough is properly done. Thank you.
Thank you from Chicago! I would not have gotten to see this material without you sharing it. I really enjoyed it.
Great! Thanks for posting.

That made me laugh....I can well imagine!
the museum is well worth a visit

Thanks for this. I’m going to see the Mary Rose next week. This has given me insights I would never have thought of. Thanks
Thanks for the awesome video! This is what makes UA-cam so great. From Alabama
Thanks Jay.
Excellent coverage. Thank you sir
Thank you so much for sharing your observations. I saw the Vasa in Stockholm when I was a child, and still have visceral memories of that visit.
Great video on the museum Harry. I too am fascinated by both woodturning and leather craft. Keep up your great educational vids. Thank you
Thank you for this tour Sir.
What an interesting video! I'm so full of ideas on that mystery object!
A really nice presentation indeed!

Hello from Portland, Oregon. I can tell we both love this stuff for very similar reasons. Subscribed.
Thanks.
Thank you Harry. Most interesting.
Now that mystery tool will be in my head for a while.

Hi Alan - thats the greenwood worker in me!! All the best Harry.
Great show thank you for sharing.

Thanks - i did hesitate before putting films of Glasgow up...but we all get our inspiration from somewhere..hence also the Mary Rose - thanks.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks. Nice film. I learned something
Muy interesante y divertido. Gracias por compartir
Awesome. Thanks
Thank you how very interesting
Another fascinating video, thanks a lot. I shall be making a trip at some point in the future to see this for myself. Great narration too
Incredible

Hi Neil - I also saw the original exhibition, but its this one that really brings it to life.
Thanks for sharing Harry Being an Ex RN matloe ex pat I appreciate your presentation
Amazing!!
Very nice, thank you!
Thank you.
The Merwy Wose is very interwesting.
Great! Thanks

19000 objects! No wonder it capsized .
thank yew
The fire was normally concealed in a stone or brick house-like structure.

Seems obvious but we still make these mistakes

The unknown tool is for drawing circles.. I use one.a length of string is missing.
Thanks Chris
The mystery tool, item number 32, could most likely be for measuring the width of holes, for mortise and tenon, and possibly rigging.
That mystery item looks like an attachment for the pole lathe.
Owen..are you thinking a tool rest stop or something?
@@harryrogers no it would be used to alter the angle of the spindle
@@harryrogers if you go on Pinterest and look up saw hoses you'll find on example
Sorry I meant pole lathe lol
Actually I think you're right
I'd bet people in the Tudor era had healthier feet than we have. They very sensibly did not scrunch their toes in pointy shoes.
Tudor inches suit me much better 😂
Where does the name Tudor come from. It's not English , is it ?
@Francis Madden
I believe its Welsh. The Tudor dynasty came from Wales, I think the Welsh spelling is Tyder or Tyddr.
Harry,
If you ever make it to the States, you must come see Colonial Williamsburg. They have artifacts there and also actual functioning shops where things are made using 18th century techniques all by hand. It is in Williamsburg.
Frank
Thanks Frank _ I would love to get there ........ insurance a bit of an issue at the moment, but that will pass.
The threat of being struck by the bell immediately on entry to the museum must keep attendance low.
