Heron Express

Wreck

What is recorded here

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Heron Express as Wreck from the Ôl-ganoloesol period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Heron Express was a coaster that sank in 1940 during World War II after striking a mine off the coast of Wales. The vessel was carrying a cargo of coal, and its loss contributed to the many shipping casualties of the war in the region.

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