Neath Castle: North Sea

Requisitioned Steam Trawler (20th Century)

What is recorded here

Neath Castle: North Sea was a requisitioned steam trawler working the North Sea during the twentieth century. The ship still lies near Orkney Islands, Scotland, waiting for a diver or a historian to remember the people who flew its flags and pulled its ropes. Its brass fittings may still hold heat from human hands, and its dark hull may still turn when the tide changes.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Neath Castle: North Sea as Requisitioned Steam Trawler (20th Century). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1km. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
