NLO: Strathlethan Bay [name: NO 881 848]
Stonehaven [name: NO 878 855].
Location formerly entered as NO 8809 8492 (N56 57.3 W2 11.75).
Formerly also entered as NO88SE 8017.
Possibly on map sheet and/or beyond Scottish waters.
(No classification or cargo specified: date cited as 19 November 1916). Isa Fiord: wreckage washed ashore in Strathlethen [Strathlethan] Bay.
(Location cited as N56 57.25 W2 11.67).
I G Whittaker 1998.
(Location entered as NO c. 881 848 [N56 57.3 W2 11.7]). The location assigned to this record is essentially arbitrary. Both the location and date cited by Whittaker evidently refer to the reported discovery of wreckage, which most probably derived from a vessel which foundered and broke up offshore, possibly beyond Scottish waters.
Strathlethan, Strathlethen or Strathleven Bay is a pronounced indentation to the South of Stonehaven. It is fringed by extensive rock exposures.
Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 30 October 2001.
