Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Hms Empire Spruce as Steam Tug (period Unassigned)-(1943). 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.

HMS Empire Spruce was a steam tug built in 1943 and lost during World War II, likely due to enemy action or operational accident. It sank in Scottish waters, and while no specific details of lives or cargo lost are recorded, its significance lies in contributing to the understanding of wartime maritime activity in the region.
