@GeorgeRick1 Other sources say 1 mile from shore and 4ish from Easington, so prob Spurn area!
@caitlinrgreen Could rising sea levels have obliterated it?
@GeorgeRick1 wave driven erosion certainly might, as it did the Lincs islands, but not actual rise over that period, I suspect--too little!
@caitlinrgreen There's a place about 4 miles from Grimsby on the other side of the river named Sunk Island. Might that be a reference to it?
@GeorgeRick1 Sadly, is apparently post-medieval in date: https://archive.org/stream/losttownsofyorks00sheprich#page/44/mode/2up …pic.twitter.com/ATCnGIgnW3
@caitlinrgreen That makes sense. Any island near Spurn Point would be pretty ideal for intercepting anything headed to Grimsby.
