Method of Fix: Aerial Photograph Interpretation Photograph Number: KCC 1961 Line 9: 6574 One of a pair of vessels lying side by side and bows on to the shore, site photographs (1,2). This one appears to be completely decked with a small raised structure just forward of amidships. In 1961 they were not covered by the tide and may have been floating (KCC 1961 Line 10: 2299) This one cannot be seen on the 1967 survey (KCC 1967 Line 29: 1225). It should be noted that the 1967 survey was at higher water and the vessel might have been submerged.
