I remember her as one of the regular Stephenson Clarke vessels bringing coal for Poole gasworks. Although she looks like a steamer I believe she was their first motor ship. She does look nice in her holiday clothes, even if they are a bit faded!

She was built in 1947 and already on site as former name Seaford which has a potted history. She is berthed in one of the Eleusis Bay ports near Piraeus, I took part in a superb cruise of the laid up ships there in September 1985 organised by the Thames Ship Society, though not sure this pic was taken at that time as had better lighting

As can be seen in the 2 photos. She was a 'Silver-bander' collier & general bulk cargo ship belonging to Stephenson Clarke Shipping Ltd of London and Newcastle upon Tyne. However, she seems to have had a couple of extra derricks added fore and aft of the bridge.
She had just finished her life with them when I joined S.C. in 1969.

For sure in Greece! But the right place unknown. maybe it's the place where she is scrapped. I scanned this slide, which is taken by the late mr. Anderiesse, Now belongs to the shiplens archive.
Regards, Kees.
