Here is Warrior,viewed from the stern. The converted Thames Lighter was built in 1958 & used commercially,we think,until the late 1980's. The conversion into a liveaboard barge took place in the early 1990's, there is a personal name plate dated 1992,probably by the persons welding the superstructure. Warrior measures 84 feet in length & 16 feet in width & is a 'dumb' barge,meaning it does not have an engine.

I do have a picture of Warrior when used as a commercial barge on the Thames, which I will try & scan onto here at a later date.

The view of the outside gives little indication as to the internal layout, people are amazed when we invite them on board for a nosey around, the wheelhouse alone is 14"x12" the same as most average sized living rooms in a house. Below decks, we have four double bedrooms, a huge kitchen, dining room, with an oil fired Esse range cooker/central heating boiler(similar to an Aga) a cosy living room,with log burner for those cold winter nights, a full size bath & separate power shower & may more nooks & cranny's for storage etc.

I will add more information with each photograph posted.
