What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Pionersk: Ness of Trebister, North Sea as Fish Factory Ship (20th Century)-(1994). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Pionersk was a Soviet fish factory ship that ran aground on the Ness of Trebister, Orkney, in the North Sea on 28 January 1989. The vessel was abandoned and later broken up on site; no lives were lost, but the wreck remains a notable example of Cold War-era Soviet fishing activity in Scottish waters.
