The British steamer, Anastasi...North Walney island, Barrow-in-Furness...Panasonic hdc sd60
The British steamer Anastasi was en route to the port of Barrow-in-Furness England, then to kilkeel Northern Ireland, when she ran aground on Christmas day 1946, there are no records of any crew being lost.The Anastasi is a 283 tons steamer built on the Clyde by Scott and sons of bowling Scotland.The wreck lies half a mile out to sea off the shore of north walney island and the remains of this vessel are still visible at low tide, but anyone thinking of paying a visit to the wreck site should think twice? i would suggest those that are not deterred must have both a good knowledge of the tide times and the sands around it, as this vessel has claimed a number of lives since it's demise.

Barrow in furness, June 2009
a trip up north to an amazing place in Barrow called The Canteen (if I remember correctly) - mad crowds from day one.
WWII Air Raid Shelter Walney Island
Walney Island was home to two of Britain's many coastal artillery installations: The Hilpsord Fort on the south of the island - where the nature reserve is today, and Fort Walney to the north; described in the newspaper article below left, and now lost beneath Barrow's golf-links. Fortunately, an aerial photograph of 1940 exists, as do plans of the battery encampment. The architecture - at least of the remaining WWII searchlight positions - was similar to the batteries at Whitehaven and Workington. The WWII battery at Fort Walney was preceeded by coastal defences constructed in July 1911 and manned by the Lancashire and Cheshire Royal Garrison Artillery. The construction and initial testing of the 1911 battery is recorded in the article (left), and reprinted in its entirity with kind permission of the North West Evening Mail. It originally appeared in the July 29th 1911 edition of the Barrow Guardian. Many thanks to David Parkin who provided photographs of Hilpsford Fort and notes, and Peter Cobb, who provided vital information appertaining to the Walney Island Defences.
The Earnse Point searchlight emplacements near North Scale (one is shown) were constructed as part of the original battery, but were modified for use during WWII. Construction was of a finer quality than the more austere WWII installations, and their vintage is given away by the sloping crown of the roof above the opening. This had the effect of ricocheting any shells away which might happen to land there. Inside, part of the steel door and sliding shuttering remains, and it can be seen where the rheostat and switchgear were attached to the wall. Small holes in the crown and side-wall were to allow heat to escape from the powerful arc-lamp and the stove, provided to afford a degree of comfort for the crew.
The BOP (Battery Observation Post) is currently used as a coast-guard look-out. The original observation gallery has been bricked up, and is discernible in both photographs. It is likely that the building is concrete, with the brick finish actually forming the shuttering. The roof of the BOP (where the little CG look-out box is) may have been used by the Royal Observer Corps during WWII, as it is on the same site as the UKWMO post. The post on the top of the BOP looks like a siren-mounting post.
The 29mm 'Blacker Bombard' spigot-mortar post is located such that it might have been used as an anti-shipping device as well as anti-tank. If this is so, it is the most northern anti-shipping spigot-mortar post unearthed to date (a title previously given to the Hilpsford Fort spigot-mortar described later). A War-Department boundary stone can bee seen in the spigot-mortar photograph which includes the BOP.
There are several 'Vickers-Armstrong' fire-watchers' posts dotted around the golf-links, two of which feature on this page. It is unclear whether they are located in their original positions
There are two pill-boxes extant at Walney Fort, and they feature a very unusual loop-hole arrangement. The pill-boxes look like the normal type F/W 24, but the loop-holes are in the angle between faces, rather than the faces themselves. There are also larger holes beneath, in the faces. The pill-box immediately below still has the blast wall intact, and is punctuated with irregular holes where twigs were placed during construction to aid camouflage. A metal bracket on top of the entrance blast-wall was used for attachment to a camouflage net. Both pill-boxes have been bricked up
