L.D.C. NO 8

Ship No 490


This was an order from the Leith Dock Commission for a dumb rock tipping barge to work on the construction of the Western Harbour breakwater and dock gates which, was constructed to make the expanded docks non-tidal.

This barge was given the work order number next allocated, hence it became Ship No 490.
