THOMAS JACKSON (POSSIBLY) - Scottish East Coast & Borders

The Thomas Jackson (Possibly) is a wooden hull wreck dating back to 1825, sitting on the seabed after striking the Crumstone. While not a massive structure, we often find it’s a good example of how time and the North Sea reclaim things. You’ll see timbers scattered, some still holding their original shape, others well-broken down and blended into the surrounding sand and rock. This is a site for those who appreciate history and the slow creep of marine life-crabs scuttling between beams, small fish darting in and out of crevices, and the occasional nudibranch grazing on the growth. It's an interesting dive for divers who enjoy a quieter exploration, piecing together the story of a bygone era.
