A Goolie at Sunderland. (Albert Weller photo)
I don't care that this is a bow on shot. I would give a lot to be able to go back 50 years - with a camera - and recapture such once familiar scenes in Sunderland Docks!! Note ship on stocks in background.

The high stern and single mast aft suggests to me that the Bartram vessel is one of the Blue Star trio of sisters
CANTERBURY STAR 1960
MONTREAL STAR 1963
AMERICA STAR 1964

Some more from the Albert Weller collection, starting with a general view that will bring back memories for those of us who walked around Sunderland docks 50 or so years ago:

... and, always interesting to see the full panorama of the negative when appropriate:

If that's the tunnel entrance I remember, there was a security man just inside and I never dared to try to get past him!

Great memories of the dock in the days when you could go down to take photos.
When you go through the tunnel and turn left that is what was called the fitting shop corner,the place where the tugs used to go for repairs,the end of the fitting shop is just in view.

George,

Yes, if it is that tunnel (and I think it is) I don't think the regular chap on duty there let anyone in! Sunderland was always the hardest local port to access even in those long-lost, laid-back days. I was once told at the main gate that if I was stopped I should say I was going to Greenwell's! However, never needed to find such an excuse once actually inside the docks.

Having said all that, I never ever tried to get into Tyne Dock, although I suppose it would have been possible?

An enlarged, rescanned from original negative, version of the view I initially posted.
