‘Incredible’ old shipwreck found washed up on Orkney beach

Sanday resident David Walker said he was keen on history and he headed straight to the scene when he heard word of the discovery.

“My interest made me jump straight in the van and head over and have a look,” he told BBC Radio Orkney.

“It’s incredible, that was why I took so many pictures.”

He said there were some “very knowledgeable” people locally and they had been assessing the find. The timbers are pegged together, and it is hoped the techniques used could help date the vessel.
