A shipwreck found off the coast of Tankerton will be excavated by experts from Historic England.

Concealed by the sea for hundreds of years, the boat’s watery remains were discovered by volunteer group Timescape.

Led by local archaeologist Mike Harrison, the group has been scouring the 10-mile inter-tidal zone for 20 years, piecing together the past, with an array of finds from fish traps to flint tools.
