An elevated view just aft of the starboard bow, taken from the cliffs, of the three-masted sailing ship Cromdale (1891) on the rocks at Bass Point below the Lloyd's Signal Station, just south-east of Lizard, Cornwall. The ship is submerged from the stern to just aft of the foremast. The jib and flying jib are set, the fore mainsail and topsail are still set, as are the main and mizzen topsails. Sea state is slight.

The Cromdale was sailing from Chile to Falmouth with a cargo of nitrates when it ran into the rocks below the Signal Station at Bass Point in dense fog. The crew took to the ship's lifeboats. The lifeboats from Lizard and Cadgwith put crew on board to rescue personal belongings but were removed as the ship was settling in the water. The wreck broke up on 30 May 1913.
