Full Description

Method of Fix: Aerial Photograph Interpretation Photograph Number: KCC 1967 Line 29: 1200 Method of Fix: Aerial Photograph Interpretation Photograph Number: KCC 1985 Line 12: 0191 This barge lies very close (within about 10m) of the shore path. It appears to be decked with small features at bow and stern. The photograph did not show whether these were openings in the deck or structures on it. The barge can be seen on the 1985 survey but by 1990 its position seems to be covered by a track used by cars (KCC 1990 Line 11: 0038). Society for Spritsail Research records a number of vessels, especially house barges in this area, (see NMR TQ 76 NW nos. 175 - 181). These could not, however, be directly linked to the sites on the aerial photographs.
