Archaeology Notes

NH85NE 8007 unlocated

NLO: Nairn [name: NH 885 567].

Possibly on map sheet NH95NW.

Banff, 7th Dec. The LEEUW, of Schiedam, from Memel to Liverpool, is on shore at Nairn, and it is feared will go to pieces.

Source: The Marine List, LL, No. 13,323, London, Thursday December 11 1856.

NMRS, MS/829/72 (no. 9294).

The map sheet assigned to this record is essentially arbitrary.

The loss of this vessel is not cited by I G Whittaker (1998), presumably suggesting her successful recovery.

Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 13 October 2006.
