Wreck

What is recorded here

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Gustaf Adolf as Wreck from the Post Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Gustaf Adolf was a Swedish warship that sank in 1564 after a battle with the English fleet near the Isle of Wight. The wreck resulted in the loss of over 1,000 lives and is historically significant as one of the earliest major naval defeats for Sweden in its conflicts with England.
