The site is located in Church Bay, Rathlin Island, Northern Ireland, at latitude 55º 17.1500′ N, longitude 06° 12.4036′ W (WGS 84). The work was undertaken as part of the Contract for Archaeological Services in Relation to the Protection of Wrecks Act (1973). Work was conducted in accordance with a brief that required WA to locate archaeological material, provide an accurate location for the wreck, determine the extent of the seabed remains, identify and characterise the main elements of the site and assess the remains against the non-statutory criteria for designation. Diving operations took place between 28th July and 5th August 2006. In addition to the diver assessment a limited desk-based assessment has been undertaken in order to assist with the interpretation and reporting of the wreck.

  • The Log of Lt Cdr E C Roden
    THE LOG OF LIEUTENANT COMMANDER E C RODEN RNR HMS Caronia 3 August 1914 - 15 May 1915 Edited by E J Scaplehorn Published by kind permission of Victoria and Fred Silvester © Liverpool Nautical Research Society 2020 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The Liverpool Nautical Research Society wishes to thank Victoria and Fred Silvester for allowing us to publish Lieutenant Commander Roden’s Log, and for their encouragement and support in enabling this important memoir of the Great War at sea to reach a wider audience. We are particularly indebted to Fred Silvester for producing the first typed transcript, which made subsequent editing far less difficult than it would otherwise have been. We would also like to thank the Liverpool RNR Officers’ Club (‘Sea Urchins’) and especially Lieutenant Commander John Glover RD RNR for highlighting the existence of the Log, and for help with editing. The biographical introduction below is largely derived from a ‘Sea Urchins’ publication commemorating their centenary. We are fortunate that the transcribed deck log of HMS Caronia is available online at http://www.naval-history.net/OWShips-WW1-08-HMS_Caronia.htm. This has been invaluable in setting Lieutenant Commander Roden’s private log within its historical context. The appearance of Lieutenant Commander Roden’s initials throughout the deck log confers an immediacy which enhances both documents. We acknowledge with gratitude the contribution of Naval-History.Net in developing this article. 1 EDITOR’S NOTE The original log, in the possession of Victoria Silvester, is handwritten in a foolscap-sized notebook with board covers. It was passed down to Victoria from her mother, Mary Lloyd-Davies, daughter of Lt Cdr Roden.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.

  • THE Acfflevements of JAMES COOK Navigator, Humanist, and Anthropologist [By CLEM LACK, B.A., Dip
    THE ACfflEVEMENTS OF JAMES COOK Navigator, Humanist, and Anthropologist [By CLEM LACK, B.A., Dip. Jour., F.R.Hist.S.Q.] This year is of great importance to Queensland, and in­ deed, to Australia. It is the year in which we celebrate the bi-centenary of Cook's great voyage in the Endeavour, dur­ ing which he discovered the eastern coast of the Australian continent, and took possession of it "from latitude 38° S. to . latitude 10° 30' S., in right of His Majesty King George the Third," naming it New South Wales. That historic date was 22 August 1770, when Cook landed on Possession Is­ land—which he thus named—with a party from the En­ deavour and erected a flagstaff on the island's highest point, which was "not less than twice or thrice the size of the ship's mastheads." It is a small hilly island, lying just west of the continent's northmost point, Cape York, which thrusts a gigantic finger into the waters of the Coral Sea, at the en­ trance to Endeavour Strait. Three miles long, from north to south, its highest point is 250 feet near its southern end. Not far away, fifteen miles north-west of Cape York, is Horn Is­ land, about twenty square miles in area; it takes its name from the highest eminence, Horned Hill (341 feet) which another great navigator, Matthew Flinders (1803) described as "forming something Hke two horns at the top." Horn Is­ land is notable in our history for the fact that it was the tactical base for AUied air operations in the Torres Strait area, and had its first air raid on 14 March 1942.
