Sailing Bill: August and September Sailings of La Marguerite

SAILING BILL: August and September Sailings of La Marguerite leaving Menai Bridge, Bangor, Beaumaris, Llandudno, Liverpool.

Printed.

La Marguerite was an excursion steamer measuring 330ft length overall and with a gross registered tonnage of 1,554. She had a passenger capacity of around 2,000. Built in 1894 by Fairfield on the Clyde for the Palace Steamers's services on the River Thames she was one of the very largest purely excursion paddle steamers ever built for service in the UK. Within ten years of her build the ship was deemed too large for the Thames and was sold to the Liverpool and North Wales Steamship Company as a people carrier for the peak sailings on their busy Liverpool, Llandudno and Menai Bridge route. La Marguerite was finally withdrawn after her last passenger sailing on 28th September 1925 and was scrapped at Briton Ferry.
