A shipwrecked boat on the Garston Shoreline of Liverpool. Sadly I can;t find no Info on It.

I boarded It and only found the words The Seil on the side of the boat.

Take Wellies though If you ever go haha, I was caked In mud. The Tides not always low either by the boat. Ah well, at least all the mud walking made me legs loose and light.

I got more of this so I hope to do colour ones.

Update: Added tiny bit more contrast.

I like the shot! :) Although I always am a little sad to see a ship just left to rot like that! :(

I've done some googling and found this that may shed some light :)

Edit - I've just compared the topsection of this shot to your one and I think it's a close match! :)

Cracking shot that (although maybe a bit more contrast might help) - any more clues as to precise location? I fancy going to have a look.

If you go down Church Road In Garston, then go all the way to the end of King street, go down Blackburne street, until you get to Brunswick street and go through Brunswick street and you'll see It.

You can see it on google earth and a couple of the other sites :)

Here's a useful linky :)

Looks like there's another wreck the other side of it too - what state was that one in?
