Hundreds of leather, hand-made shoes from a 150-year-old shipwreck have mysteriously washed up on a beach in Wales. Incredibly, the shoes are believed to be from a shipwrecked Italian cargo vessel which struck nearby Tusker Rock about 150 years ago. 'They were washed up the Ogmore river and every now and then they appear especially when there has been erosion of the river bank. She said at the time: 'There is an amazing graveyard of old footwear on the banks of the river today.' The remains of a 150-year-old shipwreck (pictured) emerged from the sands in north Wales after storms in 2019 July's thunderstorms.
