Ringers in Port Patrick
Crackin old pictures there George
Memories are made of this. Great foto!
Do you think this could be a Monday afternoon, after being laid up for the weekend? People are watching as if they are about to depart for a nights fishing, with coaches dropping of the crew.
Great photo.

In 1952 they were making the film Hunted I think the crowd must have been watching them filming

I'd guess it was a sunday Mike. No sign of life on any of the boats, I'd look for smoke coming from chimleys and boxes of stores lying at side of boats. Portpatrick was a popular destination for these old tour buses back then. Remember being there a few sundays and it was always mobbed. I'd guess there's no one could even name 10 boats there with certainty now. Only 2 I can pick out for sure are Silver Lining BA102 and Saffron BA182. I know what the rest were but I for one can't identify them.
Some fun if they wanted the lifeboat in a hurry.
think the Queen. victoria ba274 in among that lot.
