#OnThisDay in 1820, Henry Bell's pioneering paddle steamer The Comet was wrecked in choppy waters off Craignish Point, Argyll and Bute. Our latest blog tells the story of this signficant little ship, which we recently designated as a scheduled monument. blog.historicenvironment.scot/2023/12/henry-…
Have you sea-n the designation news? 🌊 The wreck of Comet, Europe’s first commercial steamship, has been designated as a scheduled monument. Henry Bell created the wooden steam peddlar & it was built in Port Glasgow by John Wood & Sons in 1811-12. historicenvironment.scot/about-us/news/…
It is #ScheduledSteamshipWednesday. This one is courtesy of @HistEnvScot: historicenvironment.scot/about-us/news/…
Today, we've launched a consultation on plans to designate the Piper Alpha Memorial and Memorial Garden in Hazlehead Park, Aberdeen. ow.ly/qJf250PkQGN
