What is recorded here
The wreck of the Xanet is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.
The Xanet was a 19th-century coaster that sank in 1867 near the coast of Cumbria after striking a reef. It carried coal and general cargo; no lives were lost. The wreck is significant as an example of early industrial maritime trade in the region.
