What is recorded here
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Mercia 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.
The Mercia was a British steamship lost in 1899 after striking rocks off the coast of Pembrokeshire, Wales, during a storm. All 26 crew members perished, and the wreck remains a notable maritime disaster in Welsh coastal history.
