The vessel was built in 1868, owned by John Hargrove of Chapel Street, Liverpool. The barque was then to run ashore on rock at Annet, Isles of Scilly. Her crew hastily abandoned ship when the stern went completely underwater, but rebounded later to collect personal belongings and some of the ships fittings. The cause of the wreck was investigated by the Board of Trade. Master, George West, blamed his chronometer for any inaccuracy of navigation , his calculations and log-book entries showing his position as being at least ten or fifteen miles west of the Bishop Light. The wreck was sold for £55 and her figurehead can be seen in the Valhalla collection of ships' figureheads at Tesco, Isles of Scilly.

Title A name given to the resource Steamer Earl of Lonsdale, St. Agnes, 8 June 1885 Description An account of the resource The Earl of Lonsdale, a steamer, was carrying beans and cotton seed from Alexandria to Portishead. . Owned by Thomas G. Dunford of Newcastle. The vessel was 1,543 tons gross and was built in North Shields, North Tyneside in 1872 The Earl of Lonsdale became stranded at 3am on June 8th 1885, as the vessel had been recklessly at full-speed in dense fog, the lookout on her forecastle sighted breakers ahead but no sooner had course been altered to clear them than she struck a submerged rock and remained fast, water pouring into the engine room. Shortly after, the fog lifted and no one was more surprised to see the Troy Town maze and St Agnes Lighthouse close abeam. The captain, Llewellin Davis, had thought his ship to have been west and at least ten miles south of the Bishop Rock when she struck, whereas in fact she had entered the Western Rocks and got into Smith Sound, heading straight for St. Agnes. With her hull pierced in several pieces, salvage was out of the question had to be abandoned as a total loss. Four days later the wreck was sold by Mr J. Hooper for £6 to a London purchaser, whilst 900 tonnes of her bean cargo went to Mr W. Rogers for twenty-two shillings, who in turn sold them to local farmers. Within the month the wreck changed hands, being bought by Vasey and Co of Newcastle, who were able to remove such of the machinery as was worth salvage before the vessel broke in two on 27 August.

The German Transatlantic Steam Navigation liner Schiller. Description An account of the resource The Schiller, was a passenger steamer of 3,421 tons gross which sank on the May 7th 1875.<br /><br />The Schiller had left New York for Habsburg via Plymouth on April 27th 1875, carrying 250 bags of Australian and New Zealand mail, a valuable general cargo, and £60,000 in American twenty-dollar gold piexes, 300,000 coins in all.<br /><br />The Western Rocks were blanketed in dense fog that night, the worst in living memory, as this German Transatlantic Steam Navitgation liner crept towards the Isles of Scilly. By 8 o'clock that evening, Captain Thomas had reduced speed to four knots and posted double lookout. An hour later, with the Bishop Lighthouse still neither seen nor heard, volunteers from amongst the male passengers were asked as additional lookouts, witht the promise of a bottle of champagne to the first man to see her light or hear the Bishop Rock fog bell. <br /><br />The prize was never collected, for just before ten o'clock the liner struck the Retarriers, having passed inside the lighthouse. Her engines pulled her clear of the rocks, but three huge waves in succession struck her beam-on, and the stricken vessle was flung broadside on to the reef. Rockets and signal-guns were fired- some of the witnesses later gave their number as at least ten- but these were mistaken by the lighthouse-keepers and islanders alike as a vessel signaly her arrival off Scilly, as was the custom.<br /><br />Pandemonium broke out on deck amongst the fear-crazed passengers and the captain was obliged to fire a revolver over their heas to retain some order, but there was little hope for anyone. <br /><br />The Schiller only carried eight boats, two of which were reduced to matchwod when the funnel collapsed across them. Two others jammed in their chocks due to the ship's heavy list, one capsized as soon as it touched the sea and another smashed against the hull in lowering and hung useless from its davits. Only two boats finally got clear and drifted off into the gloom of the night. For 320 men, women and children left aboard that night, it was to be one of mounting horror. <br /><br />Of the Schillers original complement of fifty-nine saloon, seventy-five second class and one hundred and twenty sterage-class passengers, plus one hundred and one crew, a total of 355, only 42 men and one woman survived.<br /><br />Description taken from Richard Larn, Cornish Shipwrecks:Isles of Scilly (Newton Abbot: David &amp; Charles, 1971), p. 38-42. 1871-1890 Seafaring and shipping Wrecks https://photoarchive.morrablibrary.org.uk/files/original/Richards_Collection/16043/IMG-2018-12-04_04.tif 9ef0aed4a6b5a6ddc6172cf90796975b Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

On Sunday 8 June 1887 the Castleford was underway in dense fog and at high water. Despite stopping to listen for fog horns or bells, the ship ran onto the Crebawethan rock, remaining fast. The hold and then boiler and engine rooms flooded. 250 cattle were landed at Annet, near St Agnes, and 400 deals were saved. The ship broke in two before the bridge on 9 June and the masts and funnel went over board the following day. When the Castleford was lost amongst the Western Rocks in 1887, £12.11s went to St Agnes for the saving and succour of eighteen cattlemen.

This was the wooden, 845-ton vessel, was carrying a cargo of guano. Master Jones had reached Falmouth on January 16th 1874 from Peru. It was making route to Dublin the next day to discharge goods the following day. On January 18th 1874, the vessel falsely assumed that a light seen through the murky fog was Wolf Point, but instead the vessel struck the south-east corner of Peninnis, amongst the Jolly Rocks. She went ashore with all sail set, almost on top of the tide, and thumped the rocks so hard that a large hole was made in the port bow, into which the sea poured. Within two minutes she was under water, and those who had not been swept away took to the rigging. Amid this, Captain Jones undressed in the mizzen-top and then, shouting "With God's help I will save your lives," sprang into the sea and was last seen swimming for the shore. Robert Thomas, the first mate, led the nine remaining survivors from the mizzen to the main shrouds, down the forestay and over the jib-boom onto the rocks. Shortly afterwards they met one of the islanders, Israel Pender, in Peninnis lane and told him of the Wreck.
