No.
VI.3) Additional information:
IV.3.2) 24.1.2005.
The hull of the Mary Rose has been undergoing constant conservation since 1982. Active spraying will cease in 2009 to be followed by 5 years of drying out during which time work can be undertaken to build a museum around the ship which sits in a dry dock which is a listed building. Even when the hull is dry the environmental controls needed to conserve the wooden hull are very stringent and will need to be fully addressed and understood by the design team. The aim is for there to be no physical barrier between visitor and hull and about 400 000 visitors a year can be anticipated. Minimum disruption to visitors during the building process will be expected. It is intended to open the museum in 2011, the five hundredth anniversary of the maiden voyage of the Mary Rose.
Candidates will be expected to restrict their initial presentations to a maximum of six A-1 boards.
