MARYROSEANNUALREPORT MR Final after Chair.indd 2 30/09/2019 16:08 Over my forty-year involvement, I have been delighted to see the Trust evolve from an ambitious and determined group of enthusiasts undertaking the world’s biggest ever underwater archaeological excavation into a world class museum and professional organisation, respected around the world for its work.

I am particularly pleased with the way the Trust continues to develop the fascinating Mary Rose story, with the latest scientific research revealing more compelling stories about the origins of the Mary Rose’s ship’s company, showing Tudor England was most likely far more diverse than we thought. It all makes for a spellbinding story and one that visitors continue to find as compelling as we all did when we were diving on, and excavating, the ship all those decades ago.

I remain immensely proud of having played a small part in recovering the immense treasures of the Mary Rose for the nation and send my heartfelt thanks to all those, past and present, who support the Trust and help make sure that future generations can be inspired by this truly remarkable story.

MARYROSEANNUALREPORT MR Final after Chair.indd 9 30/09/2019 16:08 Caring for the Collections & Archive

Further progress has been made on effective stewardship of the collection and digitisation of the archive. Work is progressing on populating the Collections Management System with digital records for each artefact to provide a holistic and accurate view of our collections holdings. Digitisation of the Mary Rose archive continues with over 50,000 35mm slides now scanned and catalogued by our team of digitisation volunteers. Funding is sought at the moment to continue this work with other non-digital assets such as dive logs and videos. We aim over time to digitise the entire archive and make it accessible online.

Work is underway to examine the feasibility of altering the environmental conditions in the Weston Ship Hall to create a more sustainable system in terms of energy costs and maintenance time. Discussions are underway with other institutions and our engineers to gather learnings, with in-house testing and close monitoring of Mary Rose timbers treated with (the chemical wax used to treat archaeological wood) in climate controlled chambers also planned, to evaluate impact of and moisture changes.

The giant stem post timber of the ship completed its consolidation treatment during and was transferred into the eston Ship all during February , along with the ship’s pump and an anchor. The artefacts will be air dried in the Ship Hall before being mounted into position at a later date.

MARYROSEANNUALREPORT MR Final after Chair.indd 10 30/09/2019 16:08 Scientific research

Applied conservation science has underpinned our work at the Mary Rose from the beginning, and we continue to insist on academic rigour, innovation and work done to the highest professional standards. Head of Conservation and Collections Care Professor Eleanor Schofi eld takes the lead on commissioning scientifi c research to inform and future conservation treatments for the ship and individual artefacts. Head of Research Dr Alex Hildred takes the lead on researching the collection.

We work with a broad range of partners, including universities across the UK and worldwide and governmentcommercial scientifi c organisations. This gives us a uniue blend of professional insights and funding sources to progress our work.

ork completed at iamond Light Source on the evolution of acids as the hull dries is now being prepared for publication. ork with the niversity of Sheffi eld has developed magnetic nanotech particles that could potentially draw harmful iron out of archaeological timbers. Trials have been commenced on Mary Rose and we hope, ultimately, to be able to use this treatment on the hull of Mary Rose. ork is also underway at Sheffi eld to understand the material properties of our delicate textiles, in a bid to then convert our conservation strategies accordingly.

Work on pollutants in the museum environment and developing sensors to detect them has continued with niversity College London and the ational Physical Laboratory. Sensors have been designed and placed into the museum showcases to analyse the environment and potential damaging pollutants. This, along with analysis of wood objects to determine what vapours they give off, is now being analysed.

Research with the University of Portsmouth and EMPA, Switzerland on how the ship has dried, movement of the hull and an exploration of how the water and Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) affect the timbers is being prepared for publication. A new project with EMPA and ETHZ started in late 2018 to use molecular dynamics to understand the interaction between wood, PEG and water, to inform our future care of the ship and other wooden artefacts. Further work to monitor the structural movement of the Mary Rose hull and the material properties of the wood since drying has been given a boost by the securing of a new four-year PhD student with Imperial College, which will start in Winter 2019.

Work on corrosion of and treatment for archaeological iron shot in partnership with University College London and iamond Light Source concluded its fi rst stage and gained widespread publication in specialist ournals and mainstream media. Funding has now been secured for a new four-year Ph student to continue this work with Imperial College London, commencing October 2019.

MARYROSEANNUALREPORT MR Final after Chair.indd 13 30/09/2019 16:08 Refreshing the experience

Regular programmes of activity ran throughout the year to refresh the visitor offer at peak times, including participative building of an eight- foot high LEO mosaic of Holbein’s portrait of Henry VIII. A Tudor Cooking Event, in which the replica was fired up to produce the that the crew would have eaten on board ran over May Half Term. Over the summer, our Tudor Shipwrights used traditional including a pit saw to start building a replica of the Mary Rose ‘ollywat’.

A ‘Salvage eek’ event was held around the October anniversary of the raising of Mary Rose, demonstrating a model of Tog Mor, the huge crane that lifted the ship from the seabed in . At October alf-Term, a ‘Men of War’ event was held, with specialist lectures and tours on weaponry, as well as associated family activities. King Henry VIII was present in person during school holidays, welcoming visitors and speaking about his favourite ship and he hosted ‘ing enry’s Christmas Court’ in ecember, with dancing, feasting and jester.

In March, the Trust marked British Science eek with specialist talks and a partnership with Zeiss Microscopy to take detailed microscopic images of artefacts including fish bones, to inform future conservation activity.

MARYROSEANNUALREPORT MR Final after Chair.indd 17 30/09/2019 16:08 Acting as a leading museum, nationally and internationally

A key part of the Trust’s mission and vision is to promote and develop interest, research and knowledge relating to the Mary Rose and her place in history, as well as all matters related to underwater cultural heritage, wherever located. The Trust seeks to carry out this mandate in a number of ways.

Students are hosted as interns to gain experience of Mary Rose and her collection as part of their studies. During the year the Trust hosted two Archaeology students from niversity of Bradford on an eight-month internship. Amongst other tasks, they re-located, inspected, logged and re-shelved over 400 samples from the wreck site. Some fascinating additional Tudor finds were unearthed as part of the process, including deer antler, rabbit bones and a scorpion fish.

The Trust also hosted an Erasmus student who had just finished her Master’s studies in reece. er proect focused on analysing problematic salts with the Mary Rose bricks, in collaboration with the University of . The work will inform future conservation and storage of the bricks.

MARYROSEANNUALREPORT MR Final after Chair.indd 18 30/09/2019 16:08 Mary Rose hosted an exhibition stand at ‘ew Scientist Live’ in London, to raise the profi le of the Trust as a scientifi c institution with the public. Professor Eleanor Schofi eld was commissioned to write an article on use of synchrotrons on Mary Rose materials for Nature Review Materials and a chapter on Wood Conservation for the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Heritage Materials publication.

The Trust organised the 2018 conference on synchrotron radiation and neutrons in art and archaeology, in partnership with Diamond Light Source and also hosted the conference of et Organic Archaeological Materials conservation working group of International Council of Museums, with Historic England.

Mary Rose’s ongoing involvement in key international committees includes ICUCH - International Committee on Underwater Cultural Heritage and ICOMOS - International Congress of Maritime Museums and is currently Chair of the Maritime Archaeology Sub-Committee.

Mary Rose Archaeological Services (MRAS), which carries out consultancy and conservation work for others remained in profi t during this year and provided advice and conservation services for Boskalis, ational Museum of the Royal avy, Archaeology South East, MOLA, over Brone Age Boat, cannon conservation for Royal Armouries and conservation of a prototype ‘bouncing bomb’ for BAERoyal avy.
