Excerpt from The Leaguer of Lathom, Vol. 2 of 3: A Tale of the Civil War in Lancashire
During a strong south-westerly gale, that had prevailed for two or three days, a large Spanish man-of-war, supposed to be bringing arms and ammunition for the kings party, was driven into the estuary of the Wyre, and blown ashore on the left bank of the river opposite Rossall Hall.
Being unable to get away she fired several guns for assistance, and was quickly visited by a pilot, who found she had sprung a leak; and was likewise immovably embedded in the mud.
