What is recorded here
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Catharine 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 Catharine was a vessel recorded in the National Monuments Record of Wales as a wreck from the 16th-century (Tudor period) "Ôl-ganoloesol" era, associated with the aftermath of the English Reformation and religious upheaval in Wales. Its exact loss date and circumstances are unclear, but it likely sank in Welsh coastal waters, and its significance lies in its historical context rather than known cargo or lives lost.
