The museum will permanently house the hull of the Mary Rose Henry VIIIs flagship which was raised from the seabed of The Solent near Portsmouth in 1982. The hull, currently in a dry dock, requires highly specialist environmental conditions to enable conservation to continue. The design takes an inside-out approach, cradling the hull at the centre of the new museum alongside a virtual hull which will display the original artefacts in context. Deck galleries will run the length of the ship, corresponding to the original deck levels and leading to further gallery space at the end of the dry dock. The new building will be roofed by a low shell structure that will be prefabricated and lifted into place over the existing ship hall.
