Wreck

What is recorded here

The National Monuments Record of Wales records City of Verviers as Wreck from the Modern period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The *City of Verviers* was a British steamship that sank in 1894 off the coast of Pembrokeshire, Wales, after colliding with the French steamer *Cézanne*. The wreck resulted in the loss of 13 lives and had no significant cargo of note; it is remembered for its tragic collision and the subsequent maritime safety discussions it contributed to.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
