On 14 February 1918, the Italian cargo steamer SS Chrysopolis ran aground on Spencer’s Bank off Southport during dense fog. Carrying ore from Genoa to Liverpool, salvage attempts broke her back. The Southport lifeboat rescued all 42 people aboard, and the visible remains became a permanent local shipwreck.
Accessible Land Viewing: View the remains from the Southport beach sea wall during low tide.
