HISTORY buffs can hear about the final resting place of more than 81 vessels at the latest Gloucester City museum talk next month.

The marine graveyard at Purton lies on a narrow bank between the Gloucester to Sharpness canal.

A small fleet of timber ships were intentionally beached in the winter of 1909, to help strengthen the eroding canal bank.

The talk is on Wednesday, February 6 between 1.10pm and 1.50pm.
