What is recorded here
Solway Queen (poss.) is a 1918 steamship wreck lying 124m deep off County Down, still largely intact beneath a 50m anomaly. That much size and shape at such depth suggests a real lost body, not a scattered pile of metal. Whatever it carried into the winter dark, the sea kept whole what people stopped tracking.
The official Northern Ireland wreck record identifies Solway Queen (poss.) as Steamship. It was lost in 1918. Recorded depth: 124m. Recorded condition: Largely intact wreck, 50m anomaly.
The *Solway Queen* (poss.) was a steamship lost in 1918, likely due to depth and condition suggesting a submerged wreck. It remains largely intact at 124m, with a 50m anomaly noted, though details of lives or cargo lost are unspecified.
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.
