Re: the dukes final resting place

What a waste. When i was in Dartmouth last year, they have a paddle steamer they use for river trips. Great bit of machinery although wouldn't like to be the stoker!! Taken on phone with no PP!!

Re: the dukes final resting place

Great shot of the Duke ,looks as though it could be afloat not concreted in .Had it in many a pic taken from Thurstaton but never like this. Where were you Heswall foreshore or Parkgate.
