Lady Elizabeth ? Stanley Harbour
?Lady Elizabeth?, an iron barque of 1, 155 tons built by Robert Thompson Jr. of Southwick, Sunderland and launched on 4 June 1879. Damaged in a storm in 1912, she limped to Stanley where she grounded on Uraine Rock just off Volunteer Point, suffering a 6-foot (1.8 m) break in the hull and keel along with a 1-foot (30 cm) hole. She was deemed uneconomical to repair and used as a coal hulk until breaking loose in a storm and drifting to Whalebone cove, where she resides to this day, in the Falkland Islands. Date: 1984
