Abstract: |
Excavations were limited to the immediate hull of the vessel or where specific research questions needed answering, then limited excavation took place immediately adjacent to the outer hull. All excavation was carried out by hand. See conclusions in report for further detail. General outcomes: The TBW is a small to medium sized carvel-built boat or ship with a rather large cargo capacity as a result of its beam and bluff bows. The remains of timbers within the hull have been interpreted as collapsed deck, but this decking may have only been partial. A partially open vessel could potentially be classed as a boat, whilst more extensive decking would make it a ship. However, insufficient evidence exists to determine the extent of decking at present. |
