Menai Packet

Wreck

What is recorded here

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Menai Packet as Wreck from the Ôl-ganoloesol period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The *Menai Packet* was a 19th-century steam packet operating between Holyhead and the Isle of Man. It was lost in 1852 after striking a rock near the Menai Strait, resulting in the deaths of several crew members; its wreck is of local historical interest due to its role in early steam shipping in Wales.
