Unseen Henry VIII’s warship, Mary Rose, Relics Unveiled

Carefully preserved relics revealing what life was like on board Henry VIII’s warship, the Mary Rose, have been revealed for the first time.

A Tudor fiddle and a leather “manbag” are just a few of the items the Mary Rose Trust has allowed to be filmed.

The move marks the launch of the Mary Rose 500 appeal to raise the remaining £4m needed to build the £35m museum at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard.

The Mary Rose sank on 19 July 1545 with the loss of more than 400 lives, after 34 years of service.
