On the anniversary of the sinking of the Mary Rose, Henry VIII’s flagship, during the Battle of the Solent, I discuss my trip to see her which I undertook last week.

I talked about the two fabulous talks I saw there from Dr Estelle Paranque and Dr Joanne Paul and also about these treasures to be found, all within Portsmouth Historic Dockyard.

• The Mary Rose

• HMS Victory

• Warrior

• The Armada Maps.
