What is recorded here

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Bessie Mitchell as Wreck from the Ôl-ganoloesol period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

The Bessie Mitchell was a coaster that sank in 1917 near Llangennith, Wales, after running aground during a storm. Though the exact number of casualties is unclear, it is known that several crew members lost their lives, and the wreck is considered significant as part of Wales' maritime heritage and the wartime shipping history of the region.
