Dive into the secrets of Henry V’s legendary flagship, the Grasse Dure, as archaeologists race to uncover her story beneath the River Hamble’s murky waters.
Join our team as we investigate whether this enormous medieval wreck is truly the Grasse Dure, the largest ship built in 15th-century England. Using cutting-edge sonar, daring underwater archaeology, and historical detective work, we piece together the ship’s dramatic history - from her ambitious construction and single ill-fated voyage to her mysterious end and abandonment. Along the way, we confront tough questions: Was the Grasse Dure too big to sail? Did she mark a turning point in naval engineering? And how did shipwrights manage such a colossal build with medieval technology?
Experience the challenges of excavating in poor visibility, the excitement of finding massive timbers and ancient ship nails, and the fascinating reconstruction of the ship’s unique triple-clinker hull. We reveal the immense resources and manpower it took to build a vessel of this scale, and the innovative - and sometimes desperate - solutions medieval shipbuilders employed. You’ll also discover how the Grasse Dure’s story connects to local history, the evolution of English shipbuilding, and the relentless march of naval innovation.
If you’re fascinated by maritime archaeology, medieval engineering, or the untold stories beneath Britain’s rivers, this documentary uncovers a remarkable chapter in naval history.
