SS Roe Buck — Aground at Jersey, 1911
The SS Roe Buck was a steamship operating in the early 20th century, primarily for coastal trade and cargo transport. In 1911, she ran aground off Jersey, one of the Channel Islands. The photograph captures the vessel stranded on the rocks, highlighting the challenges of navigation in the often treacherous waters around the islands.
While detailed records of her tonnage and ownership are limited, ships of her type were typically involved in carrying goods between ports along the British coast.
