SS Ellan Vannin (memorial, departed Ramsey)

Historic Shipwreck & Dive Site MED Priority SS Ellan Vannin (memorial, departed Ramsey) - Historic Shipwreck & Dive Site on the Isle of Man
IoM's second town and a major Victorian resort. Deep natural harbour used since Viking times. Queen's Pier (1886), long sandy beach, and rich maritime history including the Ellan Vannin disaster (1909). WHY DETECT HERE: Combination of Viking harbour, medieval fishing port, and Victorian resort creates multi-period detecting potential. The beach is long and sandy (easy digging). Focus on pier area (Victorian), harbour area (all periods), and northern beach toward Point of Ayre (quieter, less detected).
