Wreck, Dell Quay


This wreck at Dell Quay, West Sussex has been there for as long as I can remember. I have never been able to find out anything about it. Even the locals seem to know nothing if you ask them.
I've taken many photos of it over the years and it doesn't seem to be deteriorating much at all.
Dell Quay is a small hamlet situated near to Chichester, it has a nice pub, a sailing club, and small boatyard and just nine privately owned houses. Some of the houses have garages bigger than the house I live in..!!
Back in the 14th century it was the only official landing place for the Port of Chichester and as such was rated 7th in importance for the whole of England. Cargo included grain, timber and other building materials. Today it is popular destination for visitors keen to enjoy the views, walks, fishing, paddle boarding, kayaking and of course, sailing.........and the pub, of course.

Keith Burton club has replied to Günter Klaus clubKeith Burton club has replied to Rosalyn HilborneI don't think it ever gets completely covered, otherwise I'm guessing it would have floated away! It's a proper mystery and very popular with photographers and painters. It looks like someone in the past has put some new wood on the hull, but there's no trace of any paint or a name.
Most houses, (the one's I could see anyway) have a boat or two in the garden and the sailing club has dozens outside. I took a photo of a couple of the houses and I'll post them in due course.
Saludos cordiales, Keith !
Keith Burton club has replied to Rafael clubIt is nicely propped and looks to have had boards replaced at some point, so I guess it is not totally unloved, it would be nice if some information could be found.
Keith Burton club has replied to Roger (Grisly) clubGlad you like the shot and thanks for commenting.
Could use 'some' maintenance.

Keith Burton club has replied to elvigiadelosamanecer… clubKeith Burton club has replied to Amelia clubYour comment reminded me that I was going to check up on the twisted hazel and I've literally just got back indoors from doing it. Sadly, the answer is no. There are lots of little buds on the branches, but no sign of any female flowers emerging yet.
To be honest neither the buds or catkins are looking very healthy....I suspect the recent frost has got to them. I'll check again in a few days.
