Lost timber drifting onto beaches
Timber lost by the "Frisian Lady" have drifted onto beaches across East Lothian. The ship lost its load in the North Sea, and its cargo found its way into the Firth of Forth on March 20, 2018. 200 bundles of timber lost on March 2 enroute from Antwerp to Immingham found their way onto county shores stretching from Morrison’s Haven to North Berwick. People were being urged not to try and salvage the timber which came off the "Frisian Lady" while she was 110 nautical miles esat of Souter Lighhouse, off the South Shields coast. The timber packets had largely broken up into individual planks and were being reported to have washed up on beaches in East Lothian, the Scottish Borders and Fife. The Police Scotland appealed to people not to attempt to salvage any of the timber themselves. HM Coastguard had been issuing navigational safety broadcasts to warn shipping of the lost cargo after the incident, however they said aerial surveillance now indicated that most timber was no longer at sea in large concentrations and has washed ashore.
