Cadw: Designated Shipwreck Sites (3rd Party Data)
Natural Resources of Wales (NRW) are supplied a number of historic and cultural datasets under a licence from Cadw. Cadw is the Welsh Government’s historic environment service working for an accessible and well-protected historic environment for Wales. They were set up with the aim of conserving Wales’s heritage, helping people understand and care about their history and helping to sustain the distinctive character of Wales. 'Wrecks' are designated under the 1973 Protection of Wrecks Act. There are numerous maritime wrecks in the seas around Wales. Although all of them have historic value, six currently have legal protection. These six are known as 'designated wrecks' or 'protected wrecks'.
