Thread Name: New Guitar Ship In Beverley.
Subject: RE: New Guitar Ship In Beverley.
Beverley is on the river Hull, it made sea-going ships that had to be launched sideways into the river. The slipway still exists.

The lass from Beverley I knew - her father worked in the shipyard as a young man. I got all the stories.........

There is a canal arm/wharf right upto the main road. I forget where Ladygate is - unless it is the pedestrian offshoot of the main shopping pedestrian bit.

(waits for Sir jOhn from Hull to give directions - lets hope they are decipherable)
