Why this spot
German brigantine Verein stranded 1884; Firth of Forth beaches also shed wreck and aircraft debris (Seton Sands) after north-easterlies.
Wessex Archaeology: Nov-Dec 2023 north-easterly storms stripped sand at Broad Sands exposing ribs, stem post and keelson of the likely Verein; Seton Sands got keel and frame pieces plus aircraft wreckageView source →
