Light Vessel 72

Aerial footage of Light Vessel 72: Light Vessel 72 (also known by its identification number LV72) was a light vessel of Trinity House, a British lighthouse authority. Constructed in Sunderland in 1903 she served as a navigational beacon in the British Isles until the Second World War. From 18 June 1944, in Operation Overlord, she was positioned off Normandy to mark the mineswept shipping lanes and the approaches to the Mulberry harbours. After the war she was deployed to several stations, lastly in the Bristol Channel until sold for scrap in 1973. Saved by the intervention of a scrapyard manager, she has lain on a mud bank in Neath, Wales, since. Groups from Sunderland made proposals to return her to where she was built, but the plan was never realised.
