The Kintyre is recorded to have been built in 1868 by Robertson & Co. Greenock. The vessel was an iron steamship, with a clipper bow. The vessel is recorded by divers as being substantially intact, with gash from collision visible. Characterising Scotland's Marine Archaeolological Resource database places this wreck c. 70m to the east of the UKHO position for the live wreck of the St Oran. The Canmore position is in accordance with the UKHO position
