What is recorded here
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Recto as Steam Trawler (period Unassigned)-(1917). 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.
The *Recto* was a steam trawler built in 1917, lost in Scottish waters during World War I. It sank while engaged in fishing activities, with no significant cargo or lives reported lost; its survival as a well-preserved wreck contributes to understanding early 20th-century fishing vessel design and operations.
