The Forgotten Wrecks research team, part of the Maritime Archaeology Trust, are research group members of the Friends. To highlight their research work at Kew (WW1 wrecks along the south coast), and supporting The National Archives’ 2017 World War 1 theme of the war at sea and in the air, they have kindly provided an information banner on their project. This is now on display in our lounge at Kew. Please take the opportunity to see the work of the team when you are next at Kew.
