What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Hawnby: Johnshaven, North Sea as Craft (20th Century)-(1919). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The *Hawnby* was a coaster built in 1919 and registered in Johnshaven, Fife. It was lost in 1940 during the Second World War, likely due to enemy action or mine strike in the North Sea, with no lives lost but carrying a cargo of coal; its wreck remains a notable example of interwar coastal trade vessels in Scottish waters.
