Maritime record TR 35 NE 81 - Wreck (north), Pegwell Bay, recorded 2010
Summary
Remains of wooden craft recorded in the inter-tidal zone in Pegwell Bay in 2010, the northern site of two wrecks fairly close together on a north-south alignment along the beach, both likely to be sailing vessels. This example is of unknown date, but has a high likelihood of being of post-medieval date by comparison with the remains of other inter-tidal wreck sites of wooden construction revealed by sand erosion during the early 21st century. In this inter-tidal location the manner of loss is interpretable as by stranding or beaching. For the southern wreck of this cluster, please see 1619277, and for a cluster of three sites in the marine zone to the north-east, please see 1619282, Together these sites represent a possible ships' graveyard.
