What is recorded here
RFA Industry is a shipwreck in County Down, Ireland. Perhaps the steel hull still lies broken at eighty-two metres, waiting for darkness to claim what light released. Maybe the water moves around its ribs like a breath held since 1918. Imagine a diver descending into that green pressure, hearing only the tick of cooling metal.
The official Northern Ireland wreck record identifies RFA Industry as Steamship. It was lost in 1918. Recorded depth: 82m.
RFA Industry was a Royal Fleet Auxiliary steamship lost in 1918 off Northern Ireland, lying in 82m of water. It sank during the final year of World War I, likely due to enemy action or operational causes, though no details of casualties or cargo are recorded.
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.
