Mohegan

Wreck

Why this matters

The *Mohegan* was a 19th-century steamship that sank off the coast of Cornwall in 1871 after striking a rock near the Lizard Peninsula. It was carrying cargo, with no loss of life reported; its remains are now a noted wreck on local nautical maps, significant as a historical example of early steam navigation in southern British waters.
