Barge on River Tyne


Barge on River Tyne


    that one that was under the redheugh?  noticed its gone recently.  wondered wether it just disappeared into the mud or some intrepid scrapmen had had it
    dave, do you have a photo of the concrete ship that was on the wear? not sure if its there still. but i reckon if anyone has a pic it will be you :cheers:
    i was up st peters yesterday mark and i see there is a boat in the corner that has been on the bottom. is it the old castle dawn .     :cheers:
    Its the castle moil  Bob and i thought about trying to rescue her 18 moths ago but they never lifted her
    cheers alan , i dont think you will be able to lift her now it looks full of mud. :cheers:
    Saw it last week at low water in the basin, I think it was pretty knackered when it sank but now it's worse looks like part of the stem has come away
