What is recorded here
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Hms Fortuna as Steam Trawler (period Unassigned)-(1941). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
HMS Fortuna was a British steam trawler converted for naval service during World War II. It was lost in 1941, likely due to enemy action, though specific details of its loss, such as the exact date, location, or cause, are not clearly recorded; no information on lives or cargo lost is available, and its wider significance remains limited to local maritime history.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
