Diving brothers discover royal shipwreck that carried James II | ITV News

Two scuba-diving brothers who uncovered a long-lost royal shipwreck have described the moment they made the find of a lifetime - and how they had to keep it a secret for 15 years.

Lincoln and Julian Barnwell found the wreck of the HMS Gloucester off the Norfolk coast in 2007, after a search that had lasted four years and covered 5,000 nautical miles.

The ship had gone down in 1682 in a sinking that almost killed the future King James II, and cost the lives of up to 250 people.
