Larne Hbr 1950 

Thank you for such nostalgic footage. I left Ireland 60 years ago but remember taking the ferry from Islandmagee to Larne many times.

This was actually in May 1952 and the concrete caisson being towed is one component of 'Hippo', a prototype Mulberry harbour component built in Conwy and tested at Garlieston (not Garheston). It was designed by Hugh Iorys Hughes and completed in 1943. Ultimately it did was not used in Normandy. One component of Hippo remains, derelict but visible at low tide at Rigg Bay, Garlieston

My goodness...Is this ''Princess Victoria'' that sank in a terrible tempest in 1953? It has to be. {I thought I recognised her from old footage}

Hello Harry. I work for a television company and I am very interested in licencing the footage of the Princess Victoria. Can you please tell me how I can contact you?

Disgusting pollution .
