As some interest has been shown in the progress of the refurbishment of the barge in Baltic Wharf Boatyard, on the opposite side of the river to the office, I thought I'd start a thread about it here.A lot of work by Phil Gayton, on Flickr

It will be interesting to see what they are going to do with it.

At this point the poor barge looks like firewood!

Yeah, not sure if they gave up and decided to salvage what they could or if they intend to rebuild from the keel up.

It doesn't look as though the original keel still exists.

I checked it out again this morning and some of the wood is still stacked in the same place, some has been moved close to temporary structure to the left of this picture. I don't know if restoration work is continuing in that structure, or perhaps in "long shed" behind it, but it does look as though work of some sort is still being carried out.
