Good answer, that’s what we think too.

Dan Pascoe @danpascoe79.bsky.social · 23/08/2025

We had a fantastic couple of days diving the #ProtectedWreck Hazardous with @archsoton50.bsky.social . I think we had find of the season. Can you guess what it is? #NavalHistory #Archaeology #Shipwrecks #RoyalNavy

Hi Cathryn, looks like an iron carronade/gunnade with breeching loop c. 1800. What do you think @baliscoe.bsky.social

The YouTube version of the latest History Hit doc on the Northumberland has just been released. A great balance of the history and archaeology of the ship and the need to do much more while it is exposed on the Goodwin Sands. #NavalHistory #Archaeology youtu.be/UsWFfv6-jiM?...

@seaspitfires.com and other WWII experts, were some LCAs converted for carrying fuel. A LCA at Forton Lake has fuel tanks in the space where the troops were. See images. With @archsoton50.bsky.social #Archaeology

The exposed nature of the site is an opportunity for the @archsoton50.bsky.social students to see the organisation and layout of the ships stores, provisions and guns

Dan Pascoe @danpascoe79.bsky.social · 24/06/2025

Hazardous is a perfect site for @archsoton50.bsky.social students to learn about the construction of a wooden ship and for developing underwater searching skills.

Last week @archsoton50.bsky.social maritime students were exploring the #ProtectedWreck Hazardous, a 60 gun warship, lost in Bracklesham Bay in 1706.

It will give context to the wreck investigation of the Northumberland. I haven’t seen it, what’s your verdict?

000

Dan Pascoe @danpascoe79.bsky.social · 20/05/2025

The sands shifted in 2014 exposing the site and have not returned. Climate change is not helping. More frequent high energy weather and sea conditions are washing out the sand and silts, which were trapped in the wreck. Marine borers eating the exposed wood. We’re losing it at an alarming rate.

Dan Pascoe @danpascoe79.bsky.social · 18/05/2025

A game of spot the difference on the #ProtectedWreck Hazardous. Images show the same area of the forward hold, one from 2019 and the other 2025. There has been no archaeological excavation in this area, all natural. #Archaeology #NavalHistory #MaritimeHistory #Shipwrecks

£15m Heritage at Risk Capital Fund for Historic England to give grants for buildings, gardens and scheduled monuments is good news. I hope one day shipwrecks will receive similar. In my quest to make shipwrecks visible checkout #ProtectedWreck Hazardous latest video youtu.be/mSg1lhLW-M4?...

Dan Pascoe @danpascoe79.bsky.social · 14/01/2025

The trestle-tree we recently found on #ProtectedWreck Invincible is likely to belong to the main fighting top. Why? Well, we also found the main and preventer stays in 2019. Newspaper articles from March 1758 report the main mast was cut away. #NavalHistory #shipwrecks #Archaeology #MaritimeHistory

Great shot Ian, we pass through there regularly as we make our way out and back to the wreck of Hazardous. A wrought iron gun with bed was found within shot of your photo. We’ve been looking for evidence of a wreck but no luck so far. An aerial view at low water might be the way to go.

Already longing for the new diving season so we can continue our excavation of the gundeck of #ProtectedWreck Hazardous. In the meantime here is a reminder of what we have done so far. #MaritimeHistory #NavalHistory #Archaeology #Shipwrecks #cannon #Gunnery

It is. As you say, I assume to match the angel of the mast. Main or foremast, not sure which one yet.

Dan Pascoe @danpascoe79.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

During recent dives on the rudder of #ProtectedWreck Invincible we came across another 5 metre long timber. Not sure what it was, I asked friends at the NMRN and they ID as a trestle-tree. These supported the fighting tops. A very rare find @hefinmeara.bsky.social #NavalHistory #RoyalNavy

I know what you mean. Hopefully you can catch up with your research over the winter.

Dan Pascoe @danpascoe79.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

First dive I remember walking into the scour and looming in front of me was the bow. An amazing sight. I then climbed up the side of the wooden hull, over the gunwale and onto the deck. Unfortunately I don’t think it is like that anymore.

Hi Cathryn, it took a while to work out where you all had gone 😂. Look forward to hearing what you are up to.
