Barrier number 2, 1950

I've had a go at Beryl Simpson's picture #25882, but I'm afraid it isn't an improvement. Maybe you Steven, or someone, will do better, but I found the very low resolution of the original difficult to overcome.

[Good effort Ian, I had a go and certainly couldn't do any better - Steven]

I think this is the back way onto Lyness pier! Don't know what the boat was though.

This looks like no 2 barrier and the big block ship ILSENSTEIN.
