Shipwreck

Why this matters

The *Inverurie* was a Scottish barque built in 1806, wrecked in 1814 near Lough Foyle, Northern Ireland, while en route from Greenock to Londonderry. It was lost in a storm, resulting in the deaths of all 12 crew members, and carried a cargo of coal and general merchandise; its wreck remains a notable example of early 19th-century maritime trade in the region.
