				This is probably the German registered, HALMSTAD (814grt/1909), at the bottom end of the Union Dock quay, just before the swing bridge on Middleton Road. The funnels of two of the port’s steam tugs are visible between the ships and the dockside cranes. Four vessels in the ‘Mothball’ fleet are to the right of the picture. They could be:- AVON VALE,(D); BLANKNEY,(D); TALYBONT,(D); HAYDON,(D).
