Viking Ship
The Viking ship, named ‘Walrus’, is a waterline replica of a Viking trading vessel, based on the Skudelev 3 wreck, excavated from Roskilde fjord in Denmark in 1962. Film by Joseph Speed-Mett. This ship is just one of the reconstructions open to the public at Avalon Archaeology. There's also a Saxon longhall, the dining room of a Roman villa (with working hypocaust heating and complete mosaic floor), the oldest surviving archaeological excavation hut in the UK and an Iron Age roundhouse (under construction).
