| Description |
English: Remains of HMS Serpent washed up on the Rocks at Punto del Buey. Illustration for The Illustrated London News, 13 December 1890. THE WRECK OF H.M.S. SERPENT. In addition to the various illustrations that have appeared of the disastrous wreck of this ship, with the drowning of the officers and nearly all the seamen, on Nov. 10, at Punta del Buey, north of Corunna, on the Spanish coast of the Bay of Biscay, we have received drawings of a large piece of the steel hull. as it lay cast upon the rocks. This fragment is 43 ft. long; the whole length of the ship was 225 ft., with 36; ft. breadth of beam, as built in the Devonport Dockyard. The steel plates and riveting seem to have been good and well put together. It will be observed that this portion of the hull is lying keel uppermost; the fore end, as far as the boiler-room, is to the left hand in the larger drawing, a view of the side; and a separate view of the fore end, looking to seaward, is presented in the smaller drawing. The piece of wreck here shown was washed up on the night of Nov. 22, and was visited by the officers of H.M.S. Lapwing'. The torpedoes and stores in the torpedo-room were found apparently uninjured. |
