The GLASGOW, of Glasgow, from Gothenburg to Ireland, was lost near Wick 7th inst. One man drowned. Most of the cargo will be saved.

(No classification or cargo specified: date of loss cited as 7 January 1814). Glasgow: this vessel was lost near Wick. Registration: Scottish.
(Location of loss cited N58 26 W3 4).
I G Whittaker 1998.

The location of this loss is uncertain, and the map sheet assigned to this record is accordingly arbitrary. It is unclear whether the vessel stranded or foundered; the cited probable recovery of the cargo suggests the latter.
