Goole Built
by
Goole Shipbuilding and Repairing Company
This brochure, part of the Brian Masterman Collection, has been dated to circa 1950. The Christine, appearing on the shipyard stocks on page 1, later described as a “new vessel,” was launched in 1950.
By that time Goole Shipbuilding and Repairing Company had built and launched over 500 vessels but the very busy war years were over and the firm would have been actively seeking new business.
Publication permission for copyright images
We acknowledge that copyright images are being shown for which no explicit permission to publish has been given to this Society. Many of the digital images shown had originally been produced with the knowledge and permission of the now defunct Yorkshire Waterways Museum from original photographs deposited there for public display. Following the closure of that organisation in 2019 and the break up of their collection those original photographs have disappeared and have effectively been lost to the public.
Through an incredible stroke of good fortune digital copies of those images were donated to this Society in 2022 allowing our volunteers to finally achieve the wishes of those photographers and collectors who had made the original donations.
