The s.s. Lunan sailing down the River Avon from Bristol date not known but 1930's. She was built at the Montrose Shipbuilding Company of Scotland in 1909 for the Grangemouth Steamship Company being a freighter of 363 gross registered tons, 42.2 m long x 7.3 m beam and had a three cylinder triple expansion engine which made her capable of 9.2 knots. The lower image has been colourised.

In 1927 she was sold to R. Taylor & Sons Limited at Dundee and then to Osborn & Wallis Ltd. of Bristol, after which she worked the coal route between Newport and the Ely Tidal Harbour to the Portishead power stations.

In 1941, she was lost and only one of her crew survived when she exploded leaving the River Ely bound for Portishead due to enemy war action, probably as a result of a German mine. [158]
