The Edmund Gardner was built in Dartmouth by Philip and Sons Ltd.
She was built for The Mersey Docks and Harbour Board as the second of a new generation of pilot cutter. The role of the pilot vessels was to guide the steady stream of ships entering and leaving the Mersey. The cutters worked a rota of one week on station at the Mersey bar, one week on the outer station off Point Lynas, Anglesey and one week either serving as a supply boat and tender to the boats on station, or under maintenance in the docks.
During her career in the pilotage service she carried out her duties without major incident. She was considered a particularly good ship in heavy weather and could remain on station in conditions up to storm force 11.
The Edmund Gardner was launched in July 1953 and was in service as a pilot vessel from December that year until April 1981, when she was one of the last two remaining large cutters on duty.

Saw this old boat dry docked along the shore today, thought it looked a little sad but I'm sure a nice boat in its day.
The word Heritage site "Albert Dock" was opened in 1846 and named in honour of Queen Victoria's husband Albert. The wharehouses replaced earlier structures on the 'pool' a small river flowing into the Mersey now culverted under Paradise Street. The wharehouses where built with brick with cast iron columns for load bearing support and cast iron braces to hold the building together. The wharehouses rapidly became a popular store for valuable cargoes such as brandy, cotton, tea, silk, tobacco, ivory and sugar. The docks fell out of use after 1945 and by 1972 where destined to close altogether. In 1981 it was decided to change the use of docks into a tourist attraction. 1988 saw the complex re-opened to the public and has become a popular tourist attraction and comprises the largest single collection of grade I listed buildings in the UK. many years ago there was a popular story that the foundations of the building was standing upon thousands of bales of cotton, in fact the building stands on 13,729 piles of timber sunk into the river bed and reclaimed as land. Today Albert Dock includes the Maritime Museum, The Tate Gallery, many attractions, shops, clubs, restaraunts and appartments.
At 1338hrs on Thursday 30 January 2025, DB Cargo loco no. 66656 departs Portbury Dock in Bristol at the head of 6Z53, the late running Portbury Automotive Terminal (1243hrs) to Margam loaded steel working. The backdrop is the M5 Avonmouth Bridge. A rare sunny day day hereabouts this month.

Monochrome version of a shot of a docked boat, at the Renton Landing Southport dock. The owners had popped across the lake from Seattle for dinner at the Hyatt Regency.
Sunday's sunrise wasn't as colorful as I'd hoped. We had beautiful, low humidity weather all weekend, but unfortunately that led to a lack of clouds that often make sunrises so pretty. I actually took this shot facing away from the rising sun, toward the only part of the sky that had some clouds in it. It's not my preferred angle for shooting at Lake Shenandoah because as you can see, there are a bunch of houses in the background. The composition definitely isn't the best in this shot either, but oh well. You can't win them all!
Albert Dock on foggy morning taken about 1982.
This was taken developed and printed by myself. This is a Photo of the 12x16 print.
I was working on the Shop fronts at the Albert Dock and I used to carry My Ziess Ikon 6x6 film camera with me and this is one of the resulting images I took around 1982 at around 7.30 in the morning.
The Nettar series by Zeiss Ikon was a successful range of folding cameras for 120 roll film. Several types for 6×9cm, 6×6cm and 6×4.5cm format with different lenses and even more different shutters were offered. I still have mine.
Set number P466 which comprised 51308-59475-51323 is seen passing Teignmouth docks on 2nd October 1983 with the 1740 Exeter to Paignton.
The railings are still in situ where the branch used to enter the docks.
This was a class 118/2 set powered by two leyland 6 cyl 150 hp engines under each power car.
I recently dug this one out of my archive and cleaned it up. hope it is passable.
Despite seeing this bug everywhere in France, I've not uploaded that many shots of it (I guess it's due to me uploading plenty of it from the UK!!)!
All of these were seen in various locations in La Brenne - France

The dock was opened in 1852. It was named after the road it runs alongside and which also gave its name to the Wapping Tunnel.

I got this shot as the sun was near the horizon but the colors were pretty much absent so once again I did a mono conversion and I like the outcome better. I used the radial tool in Lightroom to raise the exposure the middle of the dock to emphasize it a bit more. I have been enjoying these mono shots but I miss color and will hopefully get some soon.
In this area there were many working boat yards, or docks, like this one, where boats were built and repaired. They were busy, cluttered places not unlike a modern scrap yard as it was common practice to break wooden boats, salvaging the ironwork.
Castlefields boat dock is typical of the many on the Black Country canal system of the period and is equipped to build new working craft and to repair those of iron or composite construction. The dock can accommodate three boats, drawn sideways out of the water by winches onto the slip. There are a number of different buildings on the boat dock each serving a specific purpose.
President on the opposite quay is a historic, steam-powered narrowboat, built in 1909 by Fellows Morton and Clayton (FMC) at their dock at Saltley, Birmingham, England. It is now owned by the Black Country Living Museum, where it is based. President is registered by National Historic Ships as part of the National Historic Fleet.
The 71 feet (22 m) long[1] President was constructed in 1909 at FMC's company dock in Saltley, and cost £600. She was registered on 23 June that year. Her riveted, wrought iron hull is shaped in the 'Josher' style, named for FMC director Joshua Fellows.
In 1925, the Ruston, Proctor and Company steam boiler and engine were replaced by a 15 hp Bolinder crude oil engine.
Ernest Thomas, a director of FMC, and a Walsall-based coal carrier, acquired the boat in 1946. She was sold to George and Matthews of Wolverhampton in 1948, but that year the UK's canals were nationalised and she finished her working days as part of British Waterways' northern maintenance fleet, on the Trent and Mersey, Macclesfield and Shropshire Union canals, from a base at Northwich.
President was bought by Nicholas Bostock and Malcolm Braine in 1973, as a derelict hull. They restored the hull and constructed a replica cabin and boiler room. A 1928 Muir and Findley "Scotch" return boiler, similar to that originally used, but operating at 100 PSI was acquired and fitted, as was a twin cylinder steam engine, originally used in a Thames launch. The boat returned to service in 1978.
President was purchased by the Black Country Living Museum in January 1983. The boiler was replaced by a Cochran dryback return flue boiler in 1990. A major refit took place from 2001–2003, including the provision of a new steam engine, pipework and cabin, plus major hull repairs.
