Viking Ship under Pub

Well, technically, it's under the pub's parking lot. In 1938, the first time it was discovered, when the old pub was moved back and a new car park built, the foreman told the workers to bury it again so construction wouldn't be delayed. BBC News Story.

Somehow, it seems really fitting that a Viking ship should turn up in a pub's parking lot; they were just about a millennium too early to get their pints.
