The Fylde Coast, battered by westerly gales, has been the graveyard for many ships over the ages. This memorial, part of Cleveleys £20 million promenade improvement sea change project, commemorates shipwrecks on the Fylde Coast 1643-2008. The names of the vessels, including Nelson's one-time flagship, HMS Foudroyant, wrecked in 1897 and the MS Riverdance Ferry, wrecked in 2008, are punched into the steel frame. A view looking south to the former wreckage site of MS Riverdance.
