Stern view of ketch C.F.H. as a motor-barge, moored at Chepstow alongside former severn trow VICTORY, 21 June 1953.
Barnstaple ketch, built in 1892 by James Goss at Calstock.
The open-moulded trow Victory ended her life laid up at Buffer Wharf, Chepstow, in the 1950s – finally filling up with mud and disintegrating. She was built by Samuel Hipwood at Gloucester in 1877 and ended her life, unrigged, as dumb barge in the stone trade.
