The Blue Shield UK Underwater Heritage Working Group's Position Paper on the UK's ratification of the 2001 Unesco Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage
The Blue Shield UK Underwater Heritage Working Group (UHWG) is dedicated to protecting underwater cultural heritage in crisis, both within the United Kingdom (UK), UK Overseas Territories and internationally. In pursuit of this mission, the UHWG's objectives are threefold
The Hulks of a 19th-Century Cowes Ketch and a Lighter at Centenary Quay, Woolston, Southampton
The redevelopment of the former Vosper Thornycroft shipyard in Woolston, Southampton led to the discovery of two hulks of 19th-century vessels in remarkable states of preservation. The craft have been identified as those of a Cowes Ketch (also known as a Solent Barge) and a lighter or dumb barge. These are rare examples of local workboats whose numbers, once relatively large, have declined to presumed extinction within the last century. This arti…
Weaknesses in the Law Protecting the United Kingdom’s Remarkable Underwater Cultural Heritage
Despite the United Kingdom (UK) having been regarded as one of the richest hotspots for underwater cultural heritage (UCH), its policy and practice regarding its protection has displayed some areas of weakness. This paper makes a case to review the legal framework and its overall administration in the UK, in order to protect and preserve any remaining UCH before it is further lost or damaged. First, we introduce some of the flaws in the UK’s lega…
Admiral
This paper reports on the discovery in the Thames Estuary and the partial recovery and recording of the remains of a 19th‐century Tyne‐built paddle tug. The wreck is believed to be that of Admiral built in Newcastle in 1870 and sunk following a collision in the estuary in 1872. This unexpected discovery provided a rare opportunity to examine the archaeological assemblage of one these once‐familiar working vessels and revealed the continuities and…
Dangerous Liaisons
Beliefs, attitudes and behaviour can be influenced in myriad ways. History has consistently demonstrated the struggle between protagonist and antagonist to win over ‘the people’, often through the simultaneous promotion and destruction of places, icons, myths, symbols and stories. Neil Verrall, Mark Dunkley and Toby Gane, three army reserve officers, and Richard Byrne, an independent geographer, describe four interconnected ways in which hostile …
Aviation Archaeology Offshore
During dredging works for the new London Gateway Port in 2011, fragments of a German Ju 88 bomber were recovered from the Thames Estuary. Subsequent archaeological investigation by Wessex Archaeology, using geophysical survey and divers, resulted in the location of the wreck site and its subsequent recovery under licence in 2012. Post-recovery analysis has enabled it to be identified as a very rare prototype Ju 88T. The aircraft, flown by men of …
