[email protected] Clyde-Built: A study of the Clyde Shipbuilding Industry as Represented by Shipwrecks within the Clyde River and Estuary SUMMARY This project forms a study of Clyde-built wrecks within the Clyde and has been undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology for Historic Scotland as part of the Heritage Assets in Relation to Marine Designation: Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish Territorial Waters project. The study has been guided by Philip Robertson at Historic Scotland and sits within the Source to Sea research programme, developed by the RCAHMS following on from recommendations by the Scottish Archaeological Research Framework (ScARF). This project has collated information from a range of sources and has enhanced knowledge of Clyde- built wrecks within the Clyde. In particular information from recreational divers has proved invaluable and has been the source of detailed information about the current condition of many Clyde-built wrecks, useful for on-going management. A number of wrecks previously recorded as of unknown identity in the RCAHMS database were positively identified during the project and more accurate positional information was established for a number of other wrecks. Additionally, the project identified a potentially significant wreck (Margaret Niven) the remains of which were not previously recorded. This project has also identified a number of other potentially significant wrecks within the Clyde, which reflect both its unique contributions to world-wide shipbuilding and local connections. These wrecks include paddle steamers (Lapwing and Princess of Wales), Clyde Puffers (e.g. Margaret Niven), steam-yachts with military connections (HMS Breda), a dredger (Greenock) and an 18th-century West Indiaman (Lady Margaret). Numerous other wrecks have been identified by this project, and all display some degree of significance. All of the wrecks can contribute in varied ways to the Source to Sea project, and provide a window through which to view many of the Source to Sea strands, from boats and ships, to migration, fish and fishing and river management and modification. The project aims have been addressed, and in particular the project has enhanced understanding of the nature, extent, condition and significance of the Clyde-built wreck remains, in addition to providing information to aid management considerations. The project has also enhanced existing archaeological datasets (e.g. Canmore), and data downloads to that repository have been carried out. Additionally this project has nurtured relationships between archaeologists and divers and has resulted in valuable new wreck information and plans for on-going cooperation and outreach. i Clyde-Built: A study of the Clyde Shipbuilding Industry as Represented by Shipwrecks within the Clyde River and Estuary CONTENTS 1.

It was an honor to know them and a privilege to be taught by them. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation has been a long time in the making and it would not have been possible without the help of many people around the world. I am particularly indebted to Professor William Roger Louis, who has been incredibly patient with me over the eight years it has taken to get this written. Regular work weeks of 60+ hours for years on end made finding the time to advance this project much more difficult than I anticipated. Professor Louis never lost faith that I would complete this project and his encouragement inspired me to keep going even when other commitments made completion look well-nigh impossible.

The author would like to thank the following for their helpful comments: Michael Barratt Brown, Ken Coates, Ken Fleet, Andrew Glyn, John Pollert, Tony Topham, David Yaffe and Sigurd Zienau. Contents Chapter I Page ! Bankruptcy and 'Inefficiency' 9 l Chapter I1 1 Effects of the Bankruptcy Chapter 111 'Efficiency' and the shipbuilding Industry 61 Chapter IV Workers' Control versus Market Rationality Introduction In attempting to measure the likely consequences of the run down of Upper Clyde Shipbuilders detailed assessmentslhave been made of the social costs and benefits whicfi do not enter into the cal- culations of a private company (external economies and diseconomies, employment and other welfare considerations), and which should be taken into account when considering the actions of any private concern from a social point of view. Yet apart from these external factars, does the fact that UCS went bankrupt reflect the fact that it was ineffi- cient within its own private terms? The traditional view is that any individual capita- list in pursuing his own good is also pursuing the good of society.

    In Highland Harbours with Para Handy by Neil Munro

    In Highland Harbours with Para Handy by Neil Munro I. NEW COOK The s.s. Texa made a triumphal entry to the harbour by steaming in between two square-rigged schooners, the Volant and Jehu, of Wick, and slid silently, with the exactitude of long experience, against the piles of Rothesay quay, where Para Handy sat on a log of wood. The throb of her engine, the wash of her propeller, gave place to the strains of a melodeon, which was playing "Stop yer ticklin, Jock," and Para Handy felt some sense of gaiety suffuse him, but business was business, and it was only for a moment he permitted himself to be carried away on the divine wings of music. "Have you anything for me, M'Kay?" he hailed the Texa's clerk. The purser cast a rapid glance over the deck, encumbered with planks, crates, casks of paraffin oil, and herring-boxes, and seeing nothing there that looked like a consignment for the questioner, leaned across the rail, and made a rapid survey of the open hold. It held nothing maritime--only hay-bales, flour-bags, soap-boxes, shrouded mutton carcases, rolls of plumbers' lead, two head-stones for Ardrishaig, and the dismantled slates, cushions, and legs of a billiard-table for Strachur. "Naething the day for you, Peter," said the clerk; "unless it's yin o' the heid-stanes," and he ran his eye down the manifest which he held in his hand. "Ye're aawful smert, M'Kay," said Para Handy. "If ye wass a rale purser wi' brass buttons and a yellow-and-black strippit tie on your neck, there would be no haadin' ye in! It's no' luggage I'm lookin' for; it's a kind o' a man I'm expectin'.
