What is recorded here

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Hms Strumble (Q-Ship) as Wreck from the Modern period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
HMS Strumble was a British Q-ship (decoy vessel) that was sunk by the German submarine U-63 on 23 August 1916 during World War I. The ship was carrying a crew of 23, all of whom were lost in the attack; it was intended to lure and destroy enemy submarines by appearing to be an unarmed merchant vessel.
