"THE LIVERPOOL" LEFT LONDON ON DEC 30th 1863. ON HER WAY SHE CALLED AT PLYMOUTH, PENZANCE, HENCE THE TIN INGOTS. SHE COLLIDED WITH THE LAPLATA WHICH HAD LEFT LIVERPOOL BOUND FOR LIMA PERU. BOTH VESSELS EVENTUALLY SANK, THE LIVERPOOL GOING DOWN FIRST.

The steamer SS Liverpool was carrying tin ingots from Cornwall and sank in 1863 after colliding with the barque Laplata, which had just left Liverpool on its way to Lima, Peru. The wreck lies just off the north coast of Anglesey and between Middle Mouse Island and the coast.
