Unknown
Overview
The record itself calls this object a possible submarine. Its position at 55.67222, -8.36057 is within the broad Operation Deadlight field, but neither the vessel type nor identity is final.
The vessel and voyage
No name, nationality or year is recorded. The shape may be a submarine, and its position makes a surrendered German U-boat a sensible lead, not a fact.
How it was lost
If it belongs to Deadlight it was deliberately destroyed or foundered under tow after the war. If the seabed shape is not a submarine, that whole account would not apply.
Deaths and survival
No death or crew is connected to the possible wreck. Human details should wait for identification.
What remains
The national record carefully says possible submarine. No checked length, raised conning tower or other feature proves the reading, and nearby submarine records could confuse the position.
Why it mattered
The point is a useful target for later seabed work because confirming or rejecting a submarine changes the local map of Operation Deadlight. Its value now is the honest possible label.
