The Sutton Hoo Ship's Company
Великобритания
Добавлен 30 апр 2020
The Sutton Hoo Ship’s Company is a charity entirely focused on building a replica of the Sutton Hoo ship that was used as King Rædwald’s burial chamber in 625.
The company was formed in 2016 and took up residence in The Longshed, Tide Mill Way, Woodbridge, Suffolk IP12 1FP in 2018. Since then we have been researching, training, and experimenting in readiness to lay the keel of the main ship in the summer of 2021.
You will see from our videos that it is an active and exciting project. You can keep up to date by subscribing to our RUclips channel, signing up to our Newsletter on the website, following us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter or why not visit us in person at The Longshed, Tide Mill Way, Woodbridge, Suffolk IP12 1FP UK

The Sutton Hoo Ship's Company - From tree to plank
In this video, you will see the full process of turning a tree into a plank. The Shipwrights and Volunteers start by cleaving a tree at the National Trust, Sutton Hoo site. You will see Tranmer House in the opening shots where Mrs Pretty lived when the Mound 1 ship was discovered. This particular oak tree was donated by the National Trust at Blicking Hall.
Once cleaved into the sections, this example is taken down to an oversized plank by Volunteers from the 23 Para's Regiment based near Woodbridge. The Paras worked with us for several months at the start of 2023 and will hopefully return in the Autumn. This is heavy work that takes strength and accuracy. If your axe digs in deeper than r...

In this video, you will see some of our volunteers controlling the first split when we cleaved a 4m x 1.2m / 6-tonne log as part of our Saxon festival in June 2023. Given the small area we had to work in and the number of spectators, the two halves of the tree were held in place by a strap so that they could be released when it was safe to do so. The tree was lifted into place by James Bye of B...

The Sutton Hoo Ship's Company - The making of an underloute
Просмотров 640Год назад
Early in 2022, we realised that the first stern underloute that we had made was failing as it dried out. The underloute is the first part of the curve of the backbone as it elongates from the straight keel in the centre. It took a long time to decide what to do as nowadays we would simply repair it with modern glues but because we are rebuilding the ship authentically this wasn't an option. The...
