Abstract:
Early Ships and Boats is a strategic desk-based assessment commissioned by English Heritage and funded through the National Heritage Protection Commissions Programme. The aim was to undertake a desk-based assessment of the records of known and dated remains of early ships and boats (i.e. those dating from the earliest times to about 1840) to inform a policy on future designation priorities. The objectives were to audit, assess, characterise and map relevant data, following the periods set out in the relevant Introduction to Heritage Assets held by National and Local Historic Environment Records; identify sites for selective investigation; and provide recommendations for expansion of the Maritime Craft Thesaurus and NRHE. The final Early Ships and Boats database comprises 384 records of pre-1840 vessels, 88 of which were recommended for selective investigation.
