The sea has uncovered the engine room of a ship in the low water area about 1/4 mile north of Birling Carrs caravan site (not to be confused with the engine room left in situ of the Hanseat by Warkworth golf course) Does anyone know anything about it?, I looked up 3 suspects - Spey, Lafonia and Moto but they have coordinates too far out in Alnmouth bay. My father thinks it is the stern of the bow section that stood on Alnmouth rocks for years but can't remember the name. Judging by the size , smaller than the Hanseat, it was possibly a fishing boat?
