Archaeology Notes

NS47SW 8002.11 c. 44690 73633

N55 55.841 W4 29.179

(Location: NS c. 44690 73633). Bowling Harbour ship graveyard, no. 11. The essentially coherent remains of a wooden vessel of heavy framed construction and measuring about 50ft [15.2m] in length lie end-on to the shore. The bow (towards the shore) is missing, and the stern cannot be seen from the shore. A prominent steel companionway (forward) and a possible wheelhouse (aft) survive.

This vessel forms a compact group with nos. (9), (10) and (12); all lie upright and are visible at High Water.
