For scrap
The 999grt bulk cargo ship Matrisha was launched in Japan in 1976 and, after a number of name and ownership changes, was wrecked after running aground on the south coast of Ireland. After salvage the hulk was towed to this remote quay on the Shannon estuary where it was used to store cement for a number of years. It was lying quietly rusting and awaiting its fate. The ship was finally cut up and scrapped in 2011.
