Portsmouth Maritime Museum

Who's the person next to you in the photo where you're in the stocks? Henry VIII? Krishna x
ReplyDeleteYes Henry the VIII as his boat was the Mary Rose. We didn't see the Mary Rose as the new museum opens next week! It was amazing how they discovered the boat and recovered it. We saw the story behind the discovery.
