Photograph: Scrapping of the SS Great Eastern, c1889-1890
Gelatine dry plate glass negative photographs showing the scrapping of the SS Great Eastern in 1889-1890 at Rock Ferry on the River Mersey, by Henry Bath and Son. View of the starboard side of the Great Eastern, image is difficult to see but appears to show the ship on land (the tide is out). Rope or chain runs from the anchor fitting to the ground, with a ladder further down the ship. A small boat or barge is pulled up alongside, next to a walk way going up onto the deck of the ship. A second boat or barge is visible towards the stern of the ship. The hull appears almost intact, with three funnels or masts visible. The paddle wheel is also visible
