The 'ghostly remains' of the ship lie on the edge of the River Deben on the Sutton Hoo estate.

It served as a cargo ship carrying cattle, goods and passengers between Northern Ireland, Scotland and England.The hulk is the National Trust's second ship at Sutton Hoo - the other is the Anglo-Saxon burial ship excavated in 1939

Built by J&R Swan in Maryhill, Glasgow, and launched on 23 December 1867, its hull was heavily built in comparison to other iron ships of the time.Historic England said the hulk was "important in our understanding of early iron ships, and its relationship to the Cutty Sark offers an insight into Linton's evolution of thought".

The Scottish shipwright later formed the shipbuilding company Scott and Linton, whose most famous vessel was the Cutty Sark, before going bankrupt in 1871.The remains are called a hulk, not a shipwreck, as it was not subject to a wrecking event After conversion to a suction dredger, the Lady Alice Kenlis was partially dismantled in the late 1930s or early '40s and the hulk can still be seen from the quay at Woodbridge.

Kay Yule, cabinet member for planning and coastal management at East Suffolk Council, described it as "an established and striking feature of the landscape".Protection by scheduling ensures the hulk gets protected by law.
