Why this spot
Portuguese carrack lost January 1527 bound Lisbon to Antwerp
Historic England lists the St Anthony, carrying copper and silver ingots, cloth, cannon and candlesticks; a copper ingot found in 1981 led to its identification. It was beached near Loe Bar after striking a reef.View source →
