A starboard broadside view of the steam collier Llandaff (1865) aground under the cliffs of Nanjizal Bay [Mill Bay], Land's End, Cornwall. The bow and turtle-back forecastle are partially obscured by a long slab of thin rock that dominates the centre right of the image. The tide is partilly in, so the ship has water around the lower hull. The photographer was standing on the cliffs on the north side of the bay, looking northwest towards the ship.

The Llandaff, in ballast, was on passage from Sheerness to Cardiff when it went ashore in Mill Bay/Nanjizal Bay in thick weather. The crew were taken off and landed in Sennan Cove. The ship had a hole in the hull which filled with the tide [Royal Cornwall Gazette, 4 May 1899]. The ship was later refloated in May 1899 by the West of England Salvage Company and sold for £870.
