IOM maritime history explored in UK heritage project

The Isle of Man's maritime heritage is contributing to a UK wide discovery project about our seas.

'Unpath'd Waters' is one of five 3-year projects aiming to reveal new stories about our maritime past, underwater landscapes, wrecks and artifacts.

It'll involve the Manx National Heritage and researchers to link our heritage to that of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, giving the public access to world-renowned collections.

The programme is funded through a £19 million investment by UK Research and Innovation and will uncover 23,000 years of history, using documents, images, films, and data.
