About this site
UB74 lies in the English Channel off the Dorset coast of southern England, at coordinates placing it south of Portland. It refers to a German First World War U-boat, part of the UB series of coastal torpedo attack submarines built for the Imperial German Navy. Wrecks of this class are found scattered around the English Channel and southern North Sea, many lost to mines, depth charges, or ramming during the war. Precise depth, current, and visibility conditions for this particular wreck site are not something known to state with confidence here.
