On 12 November 1901, the Russian coal-carrying schooner Alkor encountered a violent easterly Force 10 gale off Seaham, County Durham. Driven onto the shallow coastal approaches near Seaham Harbour, the vessel stranded and broke apart in heavy seas. Seaham coastguards battled the storm to save three sailors, while three drowned.
Walk along Seaham Harbour’s South Pier or North Terrace clifftop promenade.
