After being under conversion in Paraffin Creek since 2009, I see that she has moved to Paull on 28 May.
I think the blow-up tent had gone last time I passed her!

Paraffin Creek - Western end of William Wright Dock
Is this an historic name (nickname?) for this part of the dock?

No idea of origins, guess it must have had a paraffin connection (cargo?) at some time.
Likely that a creek entered the Humber at that point prior to WW Dock being built in late 1800's.
