    as an ex trawler skipper i find the pictures fascinating
    when i was a lad 11 or12 years old,i remember the alladale dredger turning over at the north end. have you got,by any chance,a photograph of this? there must have been hundreds taken at the time!

    Hello James,

    We do have pictures of the Alladale but I cannot find any of her turning over.

    Having just joined this forum seeking information on the sand dredger Alladale I have just read your article on Fleetwood Docks and you mention the Alladale. Reading further on I note that there are pictures of her. Could you advise if these are available for sale. My relative Lou Atkin was Skipper on this vessel in the 1960′s.

    Geoff,their are some photos of the old sand dredgers in the Lighthouse Stationary shop at the top of town near the hospital which you can purchase,not sure if it’s the one your looking for but it’s worth a look.
    Tony.
