Seven cows rescued from the grounded general cargo steamer Castleford (1883) on Crebawethan in the Western Rocks, Isles of Scilly. The cows are standing or lying down on the smooth large boulders of the shoreline. While the salvaged cows were made to swim to Annet Island, the landscape here does not properly match the island.

The Castleford was carrying 3000 tons of general cargo, including deal and wheat, as well as 460 head of cattle, 1 passenger and 18 cattle drovers. On Sunday 8 June 1887 the Castleford was underway in dense fog and at high water. Despite stopping to listen for fog horns or bells, the ship ran onto the Crebawethan rock, remaining fast. The hold and then boiler and engine rooms flooded. 250 cattle were landed at Annet, near St Agnes, and 400 deals were saved. The ship broke in two before the bridge on 9 June and the masts and funnel went over board the following day.
