Description

Wreck locations of the BEESWING, HAROLD and KILLARNEY and of the U 58. On 17 November 1917, the U 58 that had sunk the BEESWING was depth-charged by two US destroyers off the south coast of Ireland. The BEESWING was a large steel barque built in 1893. She was managed by Prichard Bros of Porthmadog and the shareholders were all local people.
