Description
Kathleen, launched from the Thamesside yard of Lewis Glover at Gravesend in 1901, traded for sixty years and seventeen days before being 'laid up out of commission'.
In the early 1980s she became derelict near Spaarndam in The Netherlands. Alf Kelsey outlived his barge, passing away aged 96 a few years later.
Kathleen's original Chaffcutter wheel was rescued from Holland and returned to the UK to serve as the symbol of Chaffcutter Books.
