The Purton Hulks:

   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purton_Hulks

are a set of boats, which have been deliberately beached on the banks
of the River Severn, to reinforce the river banks.

The author of the above Wikipedia article and I would like to mark
each individual hulk on OSM, and to include their coordinates in the
Wikipedia article.

A Bristol University Survey map of 1996 is on page 6 of:

Some of the hulks are visible in Bing imagery.

Can anyone assist? How should they be tagged?
