Welcome to the blog of the Sharpness Hulks Archaeological Survey Project
This project aims to survey and identify the remains of four hulks located in the half pound of the Sharpness old dock on the Gloucester and Sharpness canal. The results of this project will be used as part fulfilment for the Nautical Archaeological Society's part 2 Certificate in Foreshore and Underwater Archaeology.
The four hulks are the Mary, the Society, and two unknown barges and are part of the Purton Hulks used to prevent erosion of the banks of the river Severn throughout the 20th century.

Break...
Due to unforseen circumstances we have had to put this project into a hiatus period.
The project is by no means over and I shall update the blog as soon as we are able to recommence.
