Barrier?

Oct 1950
Among a lot of my folks photo's that they took when they were in Holm staying with Alfie and Violet Sutherland.
Think this is barrier No 2 as it used to be long before the wave wall.
Hope you can maybe improve this photo Steven as it is very poor quality.

Barrier No 2. - Blockship is the Ilsenstein.(Apologies if the spelling is incorrect) This is the ship that the Italians took the tiles from that we see on the floor at the Chapel alter.
