    Not a mystery and not new: Italian ship sank 150 years ago. Been donating shoes to the shoreline ever since.

    “the shoes came from an Italian cargo vessel that sank nearby roughly 150 years ago. Its cargo—which included shoes—then “washed up the Ogmore River, and every now and then they appear, especially when there has been erosion of the river bank”
