Full Description
Wreck of unknown date visible on aerial photographs taken in 1945 [1], located in Dover Dockyard. This wreck measured 39m x 7.5m at maximum extents and was orientated WNW-ESE, with the bow facing WNW. It lay 80m from the high water mark as recorded on historic OS mapping from 1938 [2]. Next Perspectives photography taken in 2003 [3] shows the area to have been reclaimed to extend the Eastern Docks.
A transcription of the feature recorded from aerial photography exists within a GIS layer held by this HER.
Nothing is shown on the aerial photo of 1946 but a hulk does appear closer to the shoreline to the west.
