Why this spot
Fishing trawler Unity lost 8 Nov 1899; dune erosion at the Marrams strips sand and exposes wreck timbers.
Great Yarmouth Mercury (2021): Storm Darcy took up to 10ft of beach overnight and uncovered the Unity's remains below the Marrams, never seen before by the local councillor; sand was already reburying itView source →
