Under the rocks here is a large steel flange, possibly part of the conning tower arrangement as it is too small to form part of the hull structure.
A view into the propellor shaft, simply taking a bearing along the shaft and follow over the sand and you will reach the other part of the wreck
A small shellfish, probably some type of oyster. I took this photograph as I have never seen one before and thought it may be a 'foreign invader', it isn't!
The seal eventually lay on the bottom and wanted to have its photo taken.....again.....and again!
Not sure if this is hull or bent deck, it is on the Point side of you in the main gully at the shore end, always a blue fiend or two in residence but careful as there are always fishing weights and lines in this vicinity.

Sometimes you will find 'odd' weights as you work along the site
A straight view down to the haven between the two carrs, snow and ice on slaty sand, it was cold!
The gnomes garden......there are a few broken ones around too!

The propellor from SS Abessinia, you can get some idea of scale when you see the diver hovering around it.
