What did the men of The Mary Rose do for fun? Did you know Divers found a fine wooden backgammon set which still had some of its counters, and a nine men's morris board scratched into the end of a barrel. Eleven dice made of bone were discovered in chests, which is to be expected as gaming was popular in the Tudor period!
Try your hand at our range of Tudor games, from our gigantic Nine Men's Morris board to simple throw a hoop games, children of all ages will be entertained!
Games running throughout the day, speak to a member of the team for times and locations on the day of your visit
