Overview
Industry: Hound Point, Firth of Forth is the exact Historic Environment Scotland record for the named sloop Industry in City Of Edinburgh. The saved class and date wording are Sloop (19th Century). This safely identifies the vessel-loss record, but does not by itself prove the loss date, voyage, people, cargo, cause or final condition.
The vessel and voyage
The official record names the vessel as Industry and classifies it as Sloop (19th Century). The saved information does not securely name its owners, departure point, destination or cargo.
How it was lost
The record ties Industry to this saved point in City Of Edinburgh. Its broad class or period must not be turned into an exact loss date, and the saved row does not safely explain the weather, accident, attack or other cause.
Deaths and survival
No safe crew list, death total, survivor total or rescue account is contained in this saved record for Industry. Those facts need another reliable source before they can be added.
What remains
The official record preserves a distinct place for Industry, but this saved information does not say how much of the vessel survives, whether remains were recovered, or what can now be seen.
Why it mattered
Industry matters here because a named sloop is tied to a particular Scottish coastal or sea location. Together with other losses, it shows the kinds of vessels using the waters around City Of Edinburgh; the exact named record also gives later research a firm starting point without inventing a fuller story.
