  • In our non-guaranteed professional opinion this is exceptional marine masterpiece.
  • The Wiscombe Park was a three-masted square rigger general cargo carrying steel sailing vessel ship, launched on 4th November 1891 and completed in January 1892 by the builders John Blumer & Co for the first owners G. Windram and Co. of Liverpool, built in Sunderland yard no 117 north dock. It was unusual for its time because it had three masts, while most large sailing ships had four. The Wiscombe Park was a steel ship that weighed 2,228 tons. Its length was 281 ft with a breadth of 42.2 ft and depth 4ft. The port of register was Liverpool. She was sold, in 1911, to Chadwick Wainwright and Co of Liverpool. And sold again, in 1919, to Bureau Freres & Baillegeau of Nantes, France & renamed Edouard Bureau. It lay idle for a while. In 1923, the vessel was sold to Vinnen Gedbruder, of Hamburg, Germany, fitted out as a sail training ship & renamed Greif. The ship participated in one or two of the Australian Grain races in the mid 1920’s.
  • In 1927, the vessel was battered rounding Cape Horn en-route from Port Pirie, S. Australia, to England, with a cargo of wheat. On 7th June 1927, the vessel arrived at Falmouth, Cornwall, but was ordered to Belfast, Northern Ireland, to discharge its cargo. The vessel grounded on Twin Rocks, Irish Sea, but was towed clear. The cargo was unloaded at Belfast. The cost to repair the vessel being too high, the vessel was sold to Irish ship breakers for £2,500 & it was scrapped in the third quarter of 1927.
