The county in South West England known as Dorset beach has a race against time. But it’s not any old beach. Oh no. It’s a nude beach!

There’ a histori shipwreck that was found that’s estimated to be around 40 metres long, 10 metres wide and 15 metres high.

A section of a historic shipwreck has been discovered following recent winter storms, with the National Trust beginning an investigation. They shared the following:

“Found washed ashore at Studland Bay, Dorset. Thee exposed timbers have been surveyed by maritime archaeologists from Bournemouth University who dated the remnants as 17th century, and are likely to be a section of the Swash Channel wreck.

The Swash Channel wreck was first discovered in the 1990s at the key shipping approach to Poole Harbour, with historical records indicating the wreck is Dutch or German in origin and most likely the Fame from Hoorn, a Dutch merchant ship which ran aground and sank in 1631.

Tom Cousins, Maritime Archaeologist at Bournemouth University, said: “It’s really exciting to find this piece of historical ship.”
