What is recorded here

Wreck of the Trawler "Children's Friend" on West Wideopen is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.
The trawler *Children's Friend* was lost in 1924 off West Wideopen after striking a submerged rock; all six crew members were drowned. The vessel, built in 1912, was known locally for its charitable name, as proceeds from its sale had funded a children's hospital.
