May 1941 - sold to Stanton & Staveley Ironworks, renamed Stanton No 57, re-registered at Ilkeston No 105 on 10/11/1941

July 1947 - sold to Joseph Rayner Ltd of Runcorn, renamed Sylvia, re-registered at Runcorn No 1168 on 1/11/1948

1955(??)  - sold to S T Brant & Co of Birmingham (1955?)

Sold to J Yates

Sold to Charles Ferry and renamed Charles Ferry

Name later reverted to Sylvia, more recently to Mira

Note: There is some suggestion that the Mira was renamed Gertrude No 1 but we believe this to be incorrect. It has arisen because of the confusion with Merope, which was briefly erroneously named Mira in 1969 before its correct identity was established.
