Summary edit

Description

Returning to matters maritime once more we have a very busy harbour scene with steam and sailing ships berthed beside quays somewhere. In the background can be seen many stacks denoting industry and in the foreground is a quay with imported timber. Wherever it was business appears to have been booming at that time but where was it?

With thanks to [/photos/scorbet/ sharon.corbet] it seems almost certain that this was taken in Drogheda, County Louth.....
