What is recorded here
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Ukho 10013 (rfa Vitol) as Wreck. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The RFA Vitol was a Royal Fleet Auxiliary vessel that was lost in 1940 during World War II after striking a mine off the coast of Wales. The ship sank with the loss of all 18 crew members, and it holds significance as a wartime casualty reflecting the dangers faced by support vessels during the conflict.
