Fleetwood

Once well known for its' fishing fleet, this port has now virtually died. The fishing fleet is down to a few small vessels and the last general cargo vessel sailed away in Dec 1987, in order for the main dock to be turned over to a marina and retail park. The one time very successful ro-ro service to and from Larne (and Dublin in the early years), continued until 24 Dec 2010, using the riverside ro-ro berth. The sub galleries here show a selection of vessels that used the port over the past 50 years or so.
