www.clydesite.co.uk/clydebuilt/viewship.asp?id=12772 Post-1914, looks like.
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
derangedlemur 1914 is the very latest date for all of our Lawrence photos.
derangedlemur said:
It seems to be the same ship, so if Clydesite is correct, and they're claiming to have got hold of the original records, then this must be 1914 sometime.
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
derangedlemur Would the mast on our Rothesay Bay support 5 sails (sheets?) as in the Clydesite image?
derangedlemur said:
There's four spars on each mast. Close enough, I reckon - the top one's probably some wee yoke that folds up or something, or they cut it down to four because of the cloth rationing. We've got an antipodean flag on it and everything else identifiable is the same. Edit: In fact, there's five spars on the forward mast.

Our first non-clydebuilt steamer. This one seems to be from Liverpool (I'm waiting for the evidence to download).
derangedlemur said:
"A new steamer built at Liverpool P.S. Sybil (233 tons) replaced P.S. Meteor and became the youngest packet vessel at the Milford station in 1827. She was also the fastest steamer on the crossing with a record of 8 hours 13 minutes for a sailing between Milford and Dunmore East. " Hmm. I'm not sure that ship looks 70 years old.
