Silverspring

Motor Fishing Vessel (period Unassigned)-(1975)

What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Silverspring as Motor Fishing Vessel (period Unassigned)-(1975). 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.
Silverspring was a motor fishing vessel built in the mid-20th century, active in Scottish waters until its loss in 1975. It sank during a storm off the coast of Aberdeenshire, resulting in the deaths of three crew members; its cargo of haddock and mackerel was partially salvaged, though the vessel itself remains a notable wreck for local maritime heritage and archaeological study.
