Simplified Wreck Survey

Underwater obstruction located at 51 03.483 N, 001 10.97 E off the coast of Kent near the Thames Estuary. This site was previously identified as debris from a 1978 Gardline survey but is currently classified as dead. Multiple hydrographic surveys, including sonar and multibeam data assessments conducted in 1996 and 2016, failed to locate any wreckage or structural debris at these coordinates. Consequently, the obstruction has been removed from active navigational charts as no evidence of a wreck or structural remains was found in the survey area.
