HMS Intrepid Presentation

Technical Demolition Services in partnership with Leavesley International were the first company to establish a dedicated ship recycling facility in Britain. The facility satisfied all Government, Environment Agency, Health and Safety Executive and Defra guidelines, based on “Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships” procedures. The facility was based at a dry dock situated at Canada Dock, Liverpool. The dock was constructed in 1898 and had recently been unused, Mersey Docks and Harbour Company leased the facility for our use.

Just about every lad brought up in the seventies, was very familiar with this class of ship due to the 'Fearless' airfix model.. ..

I cannot believe that this job, scrapping a warship is either the first, or the biggest. I am sure the scrapping of the German ww1 fleet was earlier, and larger.

There’s alway a sad moment when a warship goes to the breaking yard so sad
