Abstract:		 The Thames Discovery Programme (TDP) was commissioned by the Port of London Authority (PLA) to analyse a number of artefacts removed from wreck site 343/26 5046 located northwest of Sea Reach 1 in the Thames Estuary. It had previously been considered that the wreck site was not of archaeological interest as it was believed to date to after the 2nd world war. During the removal operation, however, a muzzle loading cannon was retrieved; as a result the TDP investigated all recovered remains. This analysis took place on the 6th April 2010. The cannon probably dates to 1787-1822, while the associated wrecked vessel was built in the late 19th century at the earliest. It has been concluded that the cannon was not originally associated with the removed vessel and has either migrated to the wreck site or was put overboard by a vessel in distress attempting to lighten ship.
