<HTML>The armed trawler 'Miura' was sunk at 00.45 hrs on 23rd August 1915 off Corton, Norfolk, after a large explosion blew her stern off. The court of enquiry thought it most likely that she had been torpedoed; the survivors stated they saw the dark shape of a submarine shortly afterwards, and heard the sound of it's engines. The area was swept for mines afterwards and none found.
