Full Description

Photograph Number: KCC 1967 Line 30: 1104 Method of Fix: Aerial Photograph Interpretation Photograph Number: KCC 1990 Line 9: 0233 The 1961 survey shows no barges in this area. A group of barges appears on the 1967 survey and that for 1990. On the later survey they seem to be more settled in the mud. On both surveys the remains seem to relate to seven barges, some are only partially visible and others are lying over the remains of their neighbours. The proximity and confusion of remains has made allocation of individual National Grid References solely from the aerial photgraph impractical.

Position of point based on 2000 E.A. aerial photograph (1,2). Site identified during 2002 survey and comprises an intact concrete barge, standing proud by at least by 2m (3).
