The Schooner in the foreground is the Janie 62682 built by Stribley of Padstow in 1870 and employed in coastal trading. My husband's grandfather Charlie Derry sailed on her in 1913 according to her ship's log. We have a portrait photograph taken from the other side of the quay with no other boats moored alongside.
