Hms/m X22: Pentland Firth

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Hms/m X22: Pentland Firth as Midget Submarine (20th Century)-(1944). 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 X22, a British midget submarine, was lost in 1944 in the Pentland Firth, Scotland, during World War II. It was one of several X-craft submarines used for covert operations, and its loss likely resulted in the deaths of its crew of four; its wreck remains a protected site due to its historical and military significance.
