Built in 1953 by Cochrane & Sons of Selby for Consolidated Fisheries Ltd. of Grimsby. Scrapped in Dublin in 1975.
It’s a great shame that this fine trawler was not preserved as part of Grimsby’s heritage.

“A very interesting read: 'Roots in the Soil: An Adventure in Agriculture' (1987) is actually a biography detailing the life and work of the prominent British agriculturist Sir Joseph Nickerson, written by the well-known agricultural journalist and author Ralph Whitlock.”

Hi Dave, Thank you for your kind comment. Keep looking, we have many more images to come. As you can imagine, we get a lot of requests for prints. Unfortunately, the arrangement we have with our suppliers means that we cannot sell or exchange images. Kind regards Admin
