Finds from the wreck of The London photographed at Fort Cumberland. Photographer's note: 'The London was a Second Rate 'Large Ship' built in Chatham in 1656 during the Interregnum. She is known to have formed part of an English Squadron sent to collect Charles II from the Netherlands and restore him to his throne in an effort to end the anarchy which followed the death of Cromwell in 1658. The London blew up on passage from Chatham in March 1665.'
