1900 view of Palmer’s Shipyard Fitting Shop. Source: Malcolm Dillon. Some Account of the works of Palmers Shipbuilding and Iron company. WE Franklin, Newcastle-upon-Tyne; 1900; 47. Note the height of the building, background view of next shop & the wall mounted crane which could move jobs from one shop to the next within the same shed. Also… the shop runs at right angles to the ridgeline of the roof, and the windows occupy the full height of the wall. Can the data locate this shed in other photos?
