Vulcana

Steam Trawler (period Unassigned)-(1917)

What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Vulcana as Steam Trawler (period Unassigned)-(1917). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Vulcana was a steam trawler built in 1917 and lost during World War I, likely due to enemy action or a mine in Scottish waters. No detailed records of lives or cargo lost are available, but as a wartime vessel, its loss reflects the dangers faced by fishing and support vessels during the conflict.
