She has had a facelift since, here she is at Goole for a barge tow in October 2011.

Some earlier views of the DOCKMAN while in service at Hull
History and many photos at Dave's site: http://www.tynetugs.co.uk/stamfordbrook1949.html

At a leafy section of Hull Docks on 4 July 1967:

The precise location may be better determined from a fuller view?

Hull - 2 October 1972:

The DOCKMAN appears laid-up and for disposal, pending her sale to Cory's the next year.
Astern, I wonder if this was the last ever photo of the NORMAN? According to George's data at: viewtopic.php?f=75&t=13519 she had been sold the previous month to be broken up locally!
Again at Hull several years later - 25 September 1987:

The JUMSEY alongside her is fully detailed at: viewtopic.php?f=103&t=5172
Alongside that pair were the YARRA and FREIGHT ENDEAVOUR:
