The remains of a small boat are visible, mostly buried in sand, on the beach at Sutton on Sea. They are shown on aerial photographs provided by the Environmental Agency and taken in advance of beach nourishment works. {1}
The boat is a small post medieval or early modern fishing boat. A survey carried out in 2010 showed that its condition had deteriorated significantly since a survey in 1997, and some timbers have been lost. {2}
A photographic recording and excavation of the remains of the boat at Sutton on Sea was undertaken in September 1997. The remains are of the bow section of a wooden carvel built sailing vessel. A third of the original length of the boat remains and the outside of the port side was uncovered. {3}{4} | Subjects: | General Archaeology | Temporal: | 1800 - 1925 | Source: | Lincolnshire County Council | Identifier: | http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/Re... | Go to resource |
