Mary Rose model (small)

Mary Rose was a Tudor warship marking the transition between Elizabethan galleons and the mighty "ships of the line". Built between 1509 and 1511, her carvel (smooth-planked) construction of oak and elm was advanced and strong for the time and permitted the cutting of cannon ports in the hull sides, so that she was one of the first ships able to fire a "broadside" - a considerable factor in her success as a fighting ship. This model has been extensively researched from drawings, diagrams and the remaining timbers and has been approved by the Mary Rose Trust. Length overall 20cm, height 19cm.
