COULD Britain's last sea-going paddle steamer Waverley make the trip from Liverpool to Manchester?
This year, wrote Pauline Grainger, of Llandaff, is the diamond anniversary of the steamer Balmoral, run by the Paddle Steamer Preservation Society to help maintain Waverley, "the last sea-going paddle steamer in the world".
By 1897 paddle steamers were regularly operating between south coast resorts and were mooring up at the landing stage on the southern end of Worthing Pier.
