Maritime record TR 35 NE 82 - Wreck (south), Pegwell Bay, recorded 2010

Summary

Remains of wooden craft, a sailing vessel, of probable late post-medieval date, located in the inter-tidal zone at Pegwell Bay and uncovered in 2010 and 2018.. The remains measure approximately 21m x 8m and comprise the virtually complete outline of a hull with protruding ribs and visible treenails and sacrificial planking. In this inter-tidal location the manner of loss is interpretable as by stranding or beaching. It lies close south of the remains of another wreck recorded to the north in the inter-tidal zone (1619279), and to the south-west of three vessels recorded a short distance east of the low-water mark in the marine zone (1619282, 1619283, 1619284), and thus appears to be part of a ship graveyard grouping.
