BOATS IN DISTRESS AT CHARLOTTE QUAY GRAND CANAL DOCK [PHOTOGRAPHED HALLOWEEN WEEKEND 2013]
Yesterday I discovered an old SD card in my Sony NEX-7 camera and it contained many photographs from the 2013 Halloween weekend.
Tuesday 17 December 2014 Waterways Ireland removed many derelict and abandoned boats from Charlotte Quay in the Grand Canal Dock at Ringsend. However, when I visited in January 2015 there was at least one which appeared to be derelict or abandoned. In April 2015 I revisited the area and there were no derelict or abandoned boats to be seen.
Charlotte Quay was named for Princess Charlotte, daughter of the Prince Regent, who married Leopold, King of the Belgians but died in childbirth in 1817. She was named for her grandmother, Charlotte of Mecklenburg, wife of George III.
