Archaeology

This amazing piece of a ship either washed up or was uncovered by the storms the other day.  It's constructed completely using wooden pegs -- no metal at all!  How incredible is this?!

Appropriate archaeological organisations have been contacted so we will undoubtedly find out more about it in due course, but it's clearly several hundred years old at least...

Just trying to imagine the lives of the people who built it and sailed on it...







This is clearly more modern and I meant to photograph it ages ago but as it's not far from the ship I had my chance today -- somebody clearly parked this car here once upon a time and then the sea just destroyed it to the point where all that remains is the tyres and the engine block!
