Two of the abandoned concrete barges on the Thames near the Tilda depot in Rainham. They may or may not have been built as part of the D-Day Mulberry Harbour, although one source is of the view that they served as petrol barges.Whatever their role, these barges are slowly rotting away by the Thames

I agree with the Nurse!
This looks like a pencil drawing esp the lower portion with reeds.
Another abs cracker, Jams.
Maybe they're old transports to Australia.
Myra, Calum, thanks!
Haha James they didn;t get far!
I grew up in Stranraer in Scotland there were stone barges left on the beach at Finards bay. We used to fish of them, I was told that they were towed out to sea and used as target practice for the bombers.
Ah thatnks for that Bullet. These ones are jut mouldering. I am not sure what will happen to them, perhaps just to rot and decay
