PS Countess of Erne was a paddle steamer passenger vessel operated by the London and North Western Railway from 1868 to 1889.[1]
History
She was built by Walpole, Webb & Bewley, Dublin for the London and North Western Railway in 1868.
Countess of Erne was damaged by fire at Holyhead, Anglesey on 30 January 1875.[2] She was sold to the Bristol General Steam Navigation Company in 1889 and used for a couple of years before being sold for scrap.
She was then used as a coal hulk in various ports. Finally she sank in Portland Harbour on 16 September 1935 and is a popular site with scuba divers for training dives.
