The liner that had carried the murderer Dr Crippen and his mistress to the United States. In October 1914, the Admiralty bought the infamous ocean liner Montrose to serve as a Dover blockship. Filled with concrete, she broke her moorings during a severe gale on 28 December 1914. The drifting vessel stranded on the treacherous Goodwin Sands, where she split in two and foundered.
Look out from Deal Castle beach toward the offshore sandbanks.
