Wreck of the 'Norseman'

Wreck of the 'Norseman' is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.

The *Norseman* was a 19th-century British merchant vessel, primarily engaged in coastal trade. It was lost in 1867 near the coast of Northumberland after striking a reef in poor visibility; all six crew members were saved, but the wreck yielded no significant cargo, though it remains a notable example of mid-Victorian maritime commerce in the region.
