Propeller from The Samson
The Samson was a crane barge which ran aground nearby on 9th December 1987 under tow to Malta. Its wreck can still be seen nearly 30 years later in X2076. Despite being a barge, it did have a small engine for manoeuvring which drove the propeller now installed near the beach car park.
