Naval Architecture

This photograph shows the steel barque "Newfield" after she was stranded off the coast of Australia on 29 August 1892. Built by Alexander Stephen of Dundee for Brownells & Co. of Liverpool, the 1,512-ton sailing ship was carrying 1,850 tons of salt from Sharpness to Brisbane when Cape Otway Light was reportedly mistaken for King Island. The wreck claimed the lives of nine crew members. A replacement Newfield was launched the following year and later sailed under the name Gwydyr Castle before being scrapped in 1932.
