Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order identifies the site in the Firth of Forth of what is thought to be a wreck of a vessel and on account of the historical and archaeological importance of the vessel and its cargo the Order designates an area 100 metres around the site as a restricted area so as to protect the site from unauthorised interference.

The restricted area does not include any part of the designated area which is above the high water mark of ordinary spring tides.
