Docks Memory
A Memory of Preston.
Unfortunately, though this photo shows the timber quay, it doesn't show the timber! Sometimes Father took my brother and me to Preston docks, and this was always a wonderful outing. I can remember scrambling around on the huge tree trunks stacked up on this quay, and indeed have two photos to prove it. In 1953, Coronation year, the submarine "Amphion" paid a visit to the docks, and half Preston came to see it. The queue to go inside stretched right round the docks basin. I was one of those who clambered down inside and I can remember how narrow everything was and how uncomfortable it must have been!
