There was plenty of work in the yard in those days

Shipwrights and joiners,next to the Birkenhead Miller in Cook's shipyard .1980's
Can anyone name these lads?


Not sure who the youngsters are, but the guy in the white apron is Robert "Bob" Child.

Left to right unknown, Pat Rilley, unknown, at back Allan (toosie) Barass, latter to take over as joiner foreman, Bob Wilcox I think?, Dave tye at front, Dick Woods, unknown, unknown & Bob Child(white apron), unknown.
