Hopper No 8

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Hopper No 8 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.

Hopper No 8 was a modern-era dredging vessel used for extracting sand or gravel from the seabed. It was lost in the late 20th century, likely due to operational accident or mechanical failure, though specific details on the date, location, or cause of loss remain unclear; no significant loss of life or cargo is recorded, and its wider historical significance is limited.
