Cornflower

Wreck

What is recorded here

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Cornflower 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.
Cornflower was a British coaster built in 1887 that sank in 1917 near the coast of Wales after striking a mine. Though the exact number of casualties is unclear, it is known that several crew members died; its wreck is now a protected site and of interest to maritime archaeologists.

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