What is recorded here
The wreck of the Abana on Anchorsholme Beach is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.
The *Abana* was a 19th-century British steamship that sank in 1876 near Anchorsholme Beach, likely due to a boiler explosion while moored. It carried no cargo and no lives were lost, but the incident marked one of the earlier recorded maritime accidents involving steam-powered vessels in the region.
The picture record does not grant public access. Use signed public paths and do not enter private land without permission.
