The Lady Elizabeth was an iron-hulled barque launched in Sunderland in 1879...
Her sailing career ended in 1913 when she was severely damaged rounding Cape Horn and then struck a rock entering Stanley Harbour. Declared unseaworthy, she was sold for use as a floating warehouse.
On February 17, 1936 a storm broke her moorings, causing her to drift and ultimately beach in Whalebone Cove, where her wreck remains today as an iconic Falkland Islands landmark.
