Welcome to the Benjidog website.

· The site was originally created by Brian Watson on 28 December 2007 as a home for
The Allen Collection of nautical photographs to make them available to people who share an interest in the Merchant Navy.

· A section dedicated to Court Line ships, added in April 2008, includes the history of 61 ships. Information includes the fate of the ship and in many cases, where the ship was sunk during wartime, and information about the casualties.

· A section called Recollections, added in December 2008, is a home for accounts of the experiences of members of the Merchant Navy (and others) during WW2 and their subsequent lives.

New on the site

5 April 2009: New section launched for histories of Miscellaneous Ships produced during research for other parts of the site.
