On 10th August 1918 the Bretagne, a schooner rigged steel steamer, was struck by the French steamer Rene Marthe.

The Bretagne received a severe blow to her starboard side, the crew abandoned ship as water lapped onto the deck, and then the boat nose-dived to the bottom.

Now she sits upright on the bottom, 232ft long with a beam of 35ft, a small ship but when visibility is good - and it can be superb- she is a first class dive.

The depth to her deck is 18 metres and it is 25 metres to the shingle seabed.
