What is recorded here
Wreck of the Star of Hope on Ainsdale Sands is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.
The *Star of Hope* was a British coaster lost in 1897 on Ainsdale Sands, off the coast of Merseyside. It was driven ashore during a storm, resulting in the loss of all six crew members and a cargo of coal, though the wreck itself had little wider historical significance.
