The Resolution Project

Welcome to an amazing maritime story of survival against the forces of nature and time.

The Story of The Warship

Resolution

On the 17th of April 2005 Scuba Divers discover a huge anchor surrounded by many large iron cannon whilst freeing a trapped lobster pot and so started the next chapter......

Based in Sovereign Harbour (Eastbourne), The Resolution Project aims to collate past and present research with the goal being to clearly identify the now protected Normans Bay shipwreck found in 2005.

Is the Normans Bay protected wreck site the remains of the English Warship Resolution or could it be that of an allied Dutch Warship lost during the Battle of Beachy Head in 1690?

Whatever the final resolution may be, The Resolution Project website is the hub from which to research and compile what we believe to be an amazing maritime story of survival against the forces of nature and time.  We wish to discover and share information to encourage a wider awareness of our rich maritime culture, history and heritage.

We are working with various bodies to promote responsible diving with a purpose, to conserve our heritage and the rich and varied marine life that can be found beneath our coastal waters.

Click on the buttons to the left of this page to navigate around this site, find information and follow or support our ongoing project.

There is much work to be done in all areas, both above and below the water, so if you feel that you could contribute in any way, please do not hesitate make contact.

Please be sure to visit The Resolution Centre page and help to make Sovereign Harbour an even greater place.
