Two old buildings, Lydney Harbour
A modern-looking metal label on the wall of each building describes its former use. The smaller, green-doored building on the right was a store. The red-doored building on the left was a mortuary.
Was working in the harbour area particularly hazardous, or were bodies from shipwrecks washed ashore nearby, to require the use of a mortuary?
