What is recorded here
The official Northern Ireland wreck record identifies Norseman as Steam Coaster. It was lost in 1916. Recorded depth: 15m. Recorded condition: 2m high, badly broken up.
Norseman was a steam coaster built in the early 20th century, primarily used for coastal trade in the North Atlantic. It was lost in 1916 during World War I, likely due to enemy action or mine strike, in Irish waters; no lives were lost, but its cargo of general merchandise and possibly military supplies sank with it, making it a historically significant wartime wreck.
A wreck point does not grant access or permission to dive, enter land, disturb the site or recover anything. Check current law and local conditions first.
