April’s mystery ship

Harry Pollitt, of Ashford, sent in the accompanying photo, which was taken in Manchester Docks in the summer of 1964. He wrote: ‘The photo was stored away with many others and only came to light recently. I am now intrigued by this ship and wonder if any reader can provide information about her?’ Where and by whom was she built? What was she used for? By whom was she operated? And what became of her?
