Storm Arwen: Community comes to the aid of stricken log boat

Storm #Arwen tossed the Iron age logboat around and damaged the side. Granton:hub received reports that the boat, which was moored in #Granton #harbour, was in danger.

A big community effort resulted in the boat being paddled away from the harbour wall. Volunteers then pulled it across onto the shore where it is now safe from any further storms.

There will be a repair carried out with the School of Ancient Crafts following ancient methods so an update will follow.

In the meantime we would like to thank everyone for their kind support. Without the local community this would not have been possible.
