I’m standing in the largest ship graveyard in mainland Britain. ⛴️ This is Purton Ship Graveyard. More than 80 ships were deliberately abandoned here along the River Severn in the early 1900s. They were old and no longer seaworthy but they still had one final job. The river was eroding the banks and threatening nearby land. Instead of building defences these ships were stripped and left here to sink. As they broke apart they trapped mud and slowed the tide helping to stabilise the shoreline. Ove

I talk about the history of the area to include how Stonewall Jackson stole the rolling stock from the RR Company when he probably should have not done that. It was a most enjoyable jaunt. | Aquachigger | Facebook
