This wreck is charted [Wk], being wire-swept to 32m in a general charted depth of between 33m and 41m. No seabed type is indicated nearby. The charted location lies 0.76nm (1.35km) NNW of the North Ness [name: NO 650 002], the northern most point of the Isle of May.

The equation of this wreck with the documented loss of HMT Northumbria is accepted on the evidence of the reported discovery of the bell. The present whereabouts of this fitting are unknown.
