Thanks Bob. She's going to be restored at the Royal Navy Museum in Portsmouth. See the notes in one of the photos I took of her on the same day http://www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=2127467
Regards
Barry

Interesting shot Graham, I saw the LCT a few times in Birkenhead, always assumed she was scrapped once she disappeared.
Any idea what her fate is now?

Regards

Bob
