NG20NE 8019 unlocated
NLO: Canna [name centred NG 25 05].
Possibly on map sheet NG20NW.
See also NG10SE 8002.
Kyleakin, Skye, 23rd Mar. There has been picked up on the isle of Canna a piece of a vessel's nameboard, length 5 ft.2 in., painted black, with letters BRA cut in, and painted white. Also, on the isle of Huscar [Humla], off Canna, a piece of windlass chock, with the letter P stamped on the end of it: and on the same island about a dozen timbers of a large vessel, with planking attached, which had been wood sheathed, but there were no marks to lead to identification.
Source: LL, No. 16,211, London, Tuesday, March 27 1866.
NMRS, MS/829/72 (no. 11027).
This discovery of wreckage is apparently to be equated with that entered as NG10SE 8002.
The map sheet and quasi-administrative area assigned to this record are essentially arbitrary, being derived from the location of discovery of wreckage. The vessel presumably foundered offshore, possibly beyond Scottish waters.
The loss of this vessel is not cited by I G Whittaker (1998).
Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 16 February 2007.
