What is recorded here
Wreck of barquentine Vicuna is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.
The barquentine *Vicuna* was a 19th-century sailing vessel, likely of British origin, wrecked in the North Sea. It was lost in 1875 during a severe storm off the coast of Norfolk, England, with no lives lost and a partial loss of cargo; its significance lies in being an example of the decline of sailing ships in the era of steam.
