  • Steamships at Hastings Pier
    Steamships at Hastings Pier Passengers aboard the Devonia in 1925, (HPC001.001) www.hastingspier.org.uk 1 Steamships at Hastings Pier The paddle steamer Carrick Castle was purchased second-hand in 1885 by the newly formed Hastings and St Leonards Passenger Steamship Co Ltd. She began trips from Hastings Pier in May 1885, the year this picture was painted, taking up to 360 passengers at a time. A Painting of Steamship Carrick Castle with Hastings Pier in background. By George Mears, 1885. This Painting is in Hastings Museum. Not all the ships that worked from Hastings Pier were paddle steamers. This is the Lady Brassey at the landing stage on eastern side of the Pier. She was built in 1886 in Newcastle for the Hastings and St Leonards Passenger Steamship Co, could carry 372 passengers, and had two steam driven propellers at the rear. But she didn’t last long because in 1890 she was sold on to Amazon Steamship Co Ltd in Paraguay. The Lady Brassey moored at Hastings Pier head. (HPC006.128) www.hastingspier.org.uk 2 Paddle steamers were the preferred craft because they could operate in shallow water, were highly manoeuvrable, and so were ideal for running the seaside excursions from piers which had become very popular by the 1880s. Between 1886 and 1890 the landing stages at Hastings Pier were extended twice, on the eastern and southern sides, so that up to four vessels could be moored at a time. The Lady Brassey was replaced by the Seagull, which was really a steam tug with a passenger certificate.

  • Scottish Silver & Applied Arts
    Scottish Silver & Applied Arts (530) Wed, 15th Aug 2018, Edinburgh Lot 41 Estimate: £200 - £300 + Fees A SCALE MODEL OF PS WAVERLEY MODEL BUILT CIRCA 1970 painted wood and ply, raised on a stand 99cm long, 33cm high Note: Built in 1946, by shipbuilders A. & J. Inglis of Glasgow, PS Waverley was launched in October 1946. She entered service with the London and North Eastern Railway in June 1947, working the LNER's Firth of Clyde steamer route from Craigendoran Pier, near Helensburgh, up Loch Long to Arrochar. In her first year in service she wore that company's red, white and black funnel colours. After a revival of fortunes in the 1950s, the 1960s saw a gradual change in holiday habits that led to a decline in passenger numbers and the closure of many of the small piers. Caledonian MacBrayne (CalMac) withdrew Waverley after the 1973 season as she was too costly to operate and needed significant expenditure. By then the Paddle Steamer Preservation Society (PSPS) had been set up and had bought the near-derelict small River Dart paddler PS Kingswear Castle. CalMac, keen to ensure that the ship was preserved, sold Waverley to the PSPS for the token sum of one pound. Neither side really believed that the vessel would return to steam but, just in case, Caledonian MacBrayne stipulated that she should not sail in competition with their remaining cruise vessel, TS Queen Mary. A public appeal was launched to secure funding for the return of the Waverley to service and the fund-raising operation was successful.
