Many thanks Mike. The ship was memorable for a number of reasons. I think that she may have been the last Anchor Line loader at Manchester before they moved to Liverpool or Birkenhead and then finally closed. Also as she came close to missing the tide.

Classic afternoon photo of this ship at Eastham in good light and very close in as well.
