About this site
Leonatus is a collier wreck on the approach to Lerwick harbour in Shetland, with a maximum depth of 65 metres. The 2099 ton ship was on her way into Lerwick in December 1917 when a mine laid by UC40 holed her in the engine room.
She now lies in two sections close together and can be dived at any state of tide. Her bell was raised in 2009 and, bearing the name Scarsdale, Stockton, revealed her first name and port of registry.
