stricken 30.4.88 & preserved - sold for BU mid-2012

Albert Weller slide in Middlesbrough Dock, dated circa May 1972, but more likely 1973 when Peter saw her (?):

Not broken up, as yet anyway!
Here she is in Vittoria Dock, Birkenhead 26/10/2013
She has lain here since the museum in East Float closed down.

Apologies to all. Albert was right it was May 1972 when I took the photograph.
