What is recorded here
Berrow : SS Nornen Shipwreck is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.
The SS Nornen was a Canadian steamship that struck a mine and sank off the coast of Newfoundland on 1 April 1918 during World War I. The vessel was part of a convoy and its loss contributed to the understanding of mine threats in the region, though no lives were lost and little cargo was noted as significant.
The picture record does not grant public access. Use signed public paths and do not enter private land without permission.
