EDITORS COMMENTS
Step aboard the HMS Kellington, a proud vessel steeped in history, as it opens its doors to the public at Stockton Quayside. This photo captures the momentous occasion on April 1st, 1994, when Paul Rutherford became the first visitor to explore this magnificent ship. Guiding him through its corridors are two dedicated members of Stockton Sea Cadets - Mark Summerfield and Terry Plews. The image transports us back to the vibrant atmosphere of the 1990s, a time when naval prowess and river trade were integral parts of Stockton's identity. The mighty River Tees serves as an impressive backdrop for this ton-class boat that once sailed these waters with purpose and determination. As we delve into this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints by Terry Reed, we can almost hear echoes of cadet footsteps mingling with tales of maritime adventures. The ship stands tall and resolute against the quayside; its weathered exterior telling stories of countless voyages undertaken in service to our nation. This photograph is a testament not only to the rich heritage embodied by HMS Kellington but also to those who have preserved it for future generations. It reminds us that within these walls lies a treasure trove waiting to be discovered by curious minds eager to learn about naval traditions and life at sea. Let us celebrate this unique opportunity provided by Memory Lane Prints - an invitation extended solely for educational purposes - allowing us all a glimpse into our maritime past.
