Taken Oct 1970 (Tug Workman)

Hi, would you mind if I shared this image with the Palm Line group on Facebook, I believe that either the Badagry Palm or the Bamenda Palm is berthed in the shot.

Hi, no problem, glad it is of some interest. Thanks Graeme

Fine set of vessels, a smaller Hapag and a Glen and will that be a Bugsier at the top end, surely not a Stivvy Clarke?

First,non TCC, vessels to use the berths were two of our ore carriers in lay-up...think they were the Lindisfarne and either Silversand/Silvercrag...it was like the deserted village down there then...Year, would guess 1962/63,certainly before it was opened to commercial traffic.

Remember the view from the train when it was just a semi-tidal area below the QE oil jetty?
