Portland Museum has been overwhelmed with the enthusiasm shown by the volunteers of its Earl of Abergavenny project, for not just the digital recording activities of the shipwreck collection they’ve been carrying out, but the story of the ship and its journey, too. 

 

Looking at how we might extend or widen this project in the future we were wondering if you could help us by answering a question: What springs to mind when you think of Portland’s maritime history?
