Earl of Elgin (UKHO 6987)

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Earl of Elgin (UKHO 6987) as Wreck from the 20fed Ganrif period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

The *Earl of Elgin* (UKHO 6987) was a British steamship that sank in 1894 off the coast of Wales after colliding with the French steamer *Mouche*. The wreck resulted in the loss of 11 lives and had no significant cargo of note; it is remembered for its tragic collision and the subsequent maritime safety discussions it contributed to.
