Boilers, Wreck of The Laura is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.
The *Laura* was a steam-powered vessel, likely a small steamer or barge, used for transport on inland waterways. It was lost in the late 19th or early 20th century, probably due to a collision or grounding near a boiler works, with its remains becoming known as the "Boilers, Wreck of The Laura." The wreck's significance lies in its contribution to local industrial transport history and as a named example of early steam navigation in the region.
