The wreck was recorded historically, because the salvage of the cargo was the subject of an international dispute that led to a Court of Star Chamber, but the location of the wreck was unknown until 1981. The wreck is designated under the Protection of Wrecks Act and is managed by Historic England.

The technology was a precursor to radio, television, satellites and the internet, with the earth station at Goonhilly Downs a nearby example.The beach at Poldhu was heavily mined during World War II to prevent any prospect of a German force landing there.
