What is recorded here

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Hms Conway 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.
HMS Conway was a training ship used by the Royal Navy and later the Royal Naval Reserve. It was lost in 1917 when it was deliberately run aground on rocks near Holyhead, Anglesey, as part of a training exercise, resulting in the deaths of 12 cadets; the wreck is now a protected site and of historical significance due to its association with naval training in the early 20th century.

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