Shipwrecked!
Stranded on the beach at Berrow, just along from Somerset’s Burnham on Sea, lies the weathered remains of the SS Nornen, a Norwegian barque which ran aground in 1897 after being caught in a gale in the Bristol Channel.
Only visible when the tide goes out, its pretty amazing there is this much of the boat still in one piece after so many years of being totally submerged for large parts of each and every day.
