The wreck known as Ballast Mound in Liverpool Bay is believed to be the remains of a 17th-century merchant vessel, likely a Dutch or English ship lost during a storm. It was wrecked between 1640 and 1660, with no detailed records of lives or cargo lost, but it represents the significant maritime trade activity in the region during the early modern period.
