Cornish Wreckers

In history, there have been wreckers at work wherever there are rough seas, rocks, shipping lanes and poor people. The Cornish wreckers are particularly well known though, and the legend of the old Wreckers Prayer lives on. The wreckers prayer song, however, was only written around 2003 by Andy Roberts based on a memory from the Isles of Scilly and an experience in the Basque country, Northern Spain.
