WISBECH STANLEY RC.jpg

1901, 1282grt by Blyth Shipbuilding under yard number 106
for Wisbech SS Co, managers Atkinson Bros. of Newcastle
She survived a gunfire attack by a submarine in the Bay of Biscay on 27/12/1916
but was torpedoed and sunk on 14/6/1917, some 12 miles NE of Trevose Head

The tug STANLEY was Hull-owned, so this may be an arrival in Alexandra Dock.
