What is recorded here
Morion is a shipwreck in County Down, Ireland. Perhaps the merchant vessel broke apart during a violent winter storm in 1917, scattering cargo across the seafloor. Maybe the hull still lies twenty metres deep, waiting for diver fins or fishing hooks to disturb its quiet. Imagine the water moving above a wooden skeleton that has resisted forgetting for a century.
The official Northern Ireland wreck record identifies Morion as Merchant vessel. It was lost in 1917. Recorded depth: 20m.
The *Morion* was a merchant vessel lost in 1917 off the coast of Northern Ireland, lying in 20 meters of water. Its exact fate and cargo remain unspecified, though it adds to the historical record of maritime activity during World War I.
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.
