What is recorded here

Shipwreck of 'Kasko' at Blackhall Rocks is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.
The *Kasko* was a 19th-century coaster that wrecked in 1876 at Blackhall Rocks, near the River Tyne. It was lost with its cargo of coal, though no lives were reported lost; its remains are significant as a well-preserved example of early industrial shipping on the Tyne.
