• Peter Cundall said:

  This was the 1915 built 6394 grt ship formerly Aschenburg, built by J C Teklenborg for the German DDG Hansa concern. After the war the ship was seized as reparations by the Shipping Controller, London and was allocated in 1921 to Ellerman & Bucknall as Lorenzo. In 1930 the ship was renamed City of Christchurch (same owner) and was sunk in 1943. The ship is shown in Ellerman & Bucknall colours. Ellermans Group used the Jones Bay wharves extensively when berthing in Sydney.
