"Kyles" in Dundee Harbour - Ref: WC0846
This photograph was taken by Alexander Wilson, a Dundee-based amateur, and shows the iron screw steamer, "Kyles", built by J. Fullerton and Co., of Paisley, in 1872.
She was owned by Mr J C Taylor of Newcastle, had a gross tonnage of 80 and measured 82.9 feet in length. She is berthed in the Tidal Basin, with the sailing ships in the King William Dock (the Royal Arch of 1848 can also be seen).
The "Kyles" is not listed in Lloyds Register for 18989, so she may have been broken up not long after this photograph was taken. The tall spire ni the background is that of St Paul's Cathedral.
