It is from 1964 at the earliest, as Navyard Wharf only opened that year and both 'Oberon' and 'Lohengrin' were only delivered in that year. The proximity of caravans to the berth indicates that 'Lohengrin' probably loading for Norway, which was a regular run for her at that time, and there was a large trade in new caravans on that service.

Do you know any more information about the service Oberon and Lohengrin operated? I'd never heard of them before watching this. Who operated them, did they take any passengers, etc?

Found this most enjoyable, especially, as I lived and worked there.Shame about the choice of music though.
