Wreck

Why this matters

The John O'Gaunt was a 17th-century English merchant ship that was wrecked off the coast of Wales during a storm in 1630. It carried a cargo of textiles and wine, much of which was lost, though no lives were reported lost; the wreck is significant as an example of early modern maritime trade in the region.
