Title A name given to the resource Pye Collection Description An account of the resource The collection consists of 422 photos which were donated by the St Just in Rosalind and St Mawes Heritage Group. The collection consists of images of people and views from a number of photographers who were working in Cornwall from the mid 19th Century. It seems that almost every town in Cornwall had one or more photographers working in studios. Brooks, Beringer, Burrow, Collenso, Gibson and Preston are just some of those. Many won awards for their work and won medals awarded by the Cornwall Polytechnic Society which opened in Falmouth in 1833. Carte-de-visite became very popular after 1854, often used as calling cards containing the photographic mount, there are many examples of this type. It is apparent that people turned up in their "Sunday Best" to be photographed , it is interesting to note the fashion changes over time from the Victorian era to the Edwardian. All the while changes were taking place with the photographic process, from plate and gradually to film and negative and the digital process that we have today. This collection is a very interesting record of the work of the Victorian photographer. Still Image A static visual representation.

Owned by Bois et Chabois of Lorient and bound for Barry with a cargo of pit wood. Launched in 1888 by W. Simon & Company of Renfrew. She had sailed from France thirty-six hours previously and encouraged foggy weather right from the start. It got worse, and shortly before midnight on the 13th the wind had fallen away and the fog became so thick that the lookouts could scarcely see beyond the bow. Around three o'clock there was a tremendous crash and her crew confronted by a tall Shape of the South America Vessel that had crashed in the bay in March. The Abertay began to pound and roll on the docks and they knew she was ashore. Dawn revealed an amazing sight. The Abertay lay so neatly placed alongside the South America that it looked as though they had been deliberately moored together. But beneath the swell it was a different story: the French steamer's forefoot and bilges were a crumpled mass of metal, the plates buckled and twisted apart. Her master, Biscayan of about forty suffered further misfortune on the day after the wreck when he slipped and fell over the ledge on the cliff and was rushed to Penzance with serious injuries. The Abertay was beyond salvage and was broken up for scrap along with the South America.

Completed a dew weeks after the Armistice of 1918, she was created by A K Ges Neptune of Rostock, on the Baltic. She was a large, single funnelled, two masted steamer of 6,483 tons gross, 4,068 tons net, with a deadweight capacity of around 9, 500 tons. She measured 438.5ft in length, 57.1st in beam and 28.1 ft in depth, and her single screw was driven by a four cylinder diesel engine of 476 nhp. At the end of the war, she was taken over by the Ministry of Shipping, who placed her under the management of Gow, Harrison & Company of Glasgow. Her German crew brought her over to Leith Roads where, on August 12th 1920, the Ansgir hoisted the 'red duster'. Captain James D Gemmel took command of her and she went out to Hampton Roads, Virginia, where she loaded coal for Rotterdam. This safely delivered her next port of call was Dartmouth and here on September 29th 1920 her crew were paid off. As customary, they all signed on afresh next day, and the Ansgir crossed the Atlantic again and at Baltimore took on coal for La Pallice. On arrival at the French port, Captain Gemmel was informed that the Ansgir had been awarded to the Japanese as part of their war reparations and he was ordered to proceed to Barry and take on bunkers for the voyage to Japan. On the morning of December 12th 1920 the Ansgir sailed from La Pallice in water ballast for Barry. The weather was hazy, with a blustery south-west wind which promised to freshen strongly before nightfall. Ushant was sighted at two o'clock in the afternoon and an hour later Captain Gemmel set course for the Wolf Rock light. The wind increased to a hard quartering gale towards dusk and visibility was seriously impaired by heavy rain and patches of foggy drizzle. At 8pm the third mate joined Captain Gemmel on the bridge for the eight twelve watch and both men and the lookouts kept constant watch for the Wolf and the Longships lights. The steamer rolled on through the heavy seas, gradually getting closer to the Cornish Coast, but by eleven o'clock no lights had been sighted. Half an hour later, the captain decided to put about, but hardly had the order been given to turn to port than the watch below were hurled from their bunks as the Ansgir struck the rocks a few hundred yards west of the coastguard lookout on Penzer Point, near Mousehole. Captain Gemmel rang down for hard astern, but the steamer was driven broadside to the cliffs within minutes, the waves breaking over her as high as her funnel. She rolled so violently that it seemed as if she would turn right over, and the boats could not be launched. A long wooden hold ladder was put over the side and down it went 19-year-old Geoffrey Davis, an apprentice from Birmingham, clad in lifejacket and with a rope about his waist. Two more volunteers followed him and hung on to the line while he jumped clear of the side and struck out for the rocks. Waiting for him were three Mousehole fishermen who had been tending their boats in the harbour when, seeing the steamers lights heading towards Penzer Point, they had raised the alarm in the village and then run all the way up the steep Raginnis Hill and along the clifftop lane to the scene of the wreck. The Mousehole men had a hard struggle to haul him out and one nearly swept into the sea, but they managed to regain the rocks and pull Geoffrey Davis in with them. More men arrived from the village and the line the apprentice had brought ashore was used to haul in a stouter rope, one end of which was secured to Ansgirs poop and the other looped around a pinnacle of granite. The the crew started to come ashore one by one, handing themselves along the line. Meanwhile the Mousehole LSA company had left their rocket-cart by the coastguard lookout and were manhandling their apparatus down the cliffs. They reached the rocks to find that twenty of the crew had already come ashore along the line and soon rescued the remaining twenty-five by means of a quickly rigged line for the their breeches buoy. Dawn found the Answer still broadside on to the cliffs, listing heavily to port, with her bows facing Lamorna. She was badly damaged and in spite of the being almost new had to be sold for scrap, and was broken up by the Western Marine Salvage Company of Penzance. In April 1921, she took a severe pounding from a westerly gale, but it was not until the late winter of that year that the Ansgir finally vanished from below the Penzer cliffs. It is still possible to find her plates and steel work jammed in the rocks below the point, and diligent search at low water can produce the occasional memento of one of the largest steamers ever wrecked between Penzance and Land's end.

The Brankelow was owned by the Brankelow Steamship Company and was built by M Pearse of Stockton in 1882. Porthleven LSA soon fired a rocket line aboard but it was mysteriously severed, a boat trying to pull ashore capsized and confusion reigned for some time. Finally her crew of twenty-nine did come ashore, except for Captain Stewart who remained on board until late afternoon, by which time the Brankelow was settling deep into the sands. Tugs and salvage gear were rushed to Gunwalloe, but a strong south-west gale on April 26th put an end to operations, and on May 9th the underwriters, via Edward Mitchell, auctioneer of Lelant, offered her for sale. Prices were ridiculous even for those days: the coal cargo, valued at £825 brought a top bid of £1 before it was withdrawn, and the Brankelow, worth £25,000 afloat, was sold at a London firm for £405. They re-sold her that evening for £840, but further storms caused her new owners to abandon hopes of refloating her, and the engines and all fittings were removed. On June 11th, again under new ownership, the now empty hulk broke up completely that autumn.

The steamer was bound from Galveston, Texas, to Le Havre with 8,895 bales of cotton and 6,720 bags of cotton seed. She struck the Maiden Bower and was unable to get clear. Her crew, mostly Lascars (sailors from the Indian or Southeast Asian Continent) took to the boats and remained close to the wreck until daybreak, when once again the Bryher gigs were used to tow the survivors' boats ashore. The Liverpool Salvage Company undertook to recover the cotton and seed, her cargo, valued at £100,000 having being insured by underwriters of that port. The wreck of the S.S Brinkburn joined another wreck called the Zelda (which sunk on April 16th 1874) at the bottom of the sea. In 1966, the wrecks were examined by divers, to which they found a number of iron cannons between the two ships. This indicated that there must have been a third older ship to have wreck, but no record of a warship or armed merchantman having being lost there.

Description An account of the resource Datetree was a brand new British steam collier/cargo ship owned by the Tree Steamship Company. It was only three months old, having been built in early 1914 by the Antwerp Engineering Company. On June 25, 1914, while carrying a cargo of coal from Barry, Wales, to Brest, France, the vessel ran aground on the treacherous Brisons Rocks. The ship broke its back and split in two, resulting in a total loss. The distinctive diamond shapes on the masts were part of the equipment used for hauling coal, and were used on other collier ships.

Title A name given to the resource Pye Collection Description An account of the resource The collection consists of 422 photos which were donated by the St Just in Rosalind and St Mawes Heritage Group. The collection consists of images of people and views from a number of photographers who were working in Cornwall from the mid 19th Century. It seems that almost every town in Cornwall had one or more photographers working in studios. Brooks, Beringer, Burrow, Collenso, Gibson and Preston are just some of those. Many won awards for their work and won medals awarded by the Cornwall Polytechnic Society which opened in Falmouth in 1833. Carte-de-visite became very popular after 1854, often used as calling cards containing the photographic mount, there are many examples of this type. It is apparent that people turned up in their "Sunday Best" to be photographed , it is interesting to note the fashion changes over time from the Victorian era to the Edwardian. All the while changes were taking place with the photographic process, from plate and gradually to film and negative and the digital process that we have today. This collection is a very interesting record of the work of the Victorian photographer. Still Image A static visual representation.
