1950's - A view (with colourised version) upstream of the slipway and gridiron location showing the derelict timber shoring adjacent to Penarth Dock but also sharing the banks of the River Ely Estuary.

The area enclosed within a green rectangle of the lower image shows the, above water level, remains of the gridiron whereas the blue rectangle provides an indication of the location of the Patent Slipway of the Penarth Ship Building and Ship Repairing Company which by this date was renamed the Penarth Pontoon and Ship Repairing Company Limited.

The original glass negative of this photograph is held at the archive of the National Museum of Wales. [Museum item number : 1996.96/429] [629] [20180418]
