s.s. 'Black Watch' - Report of Survey for Repairs, &c. for Black Watch - 18th July 1879.

She was placed on the gridiron of the Penarth Ship Building and Shipreparing Company and surveyed by Mr. Henry T. Tyrrell, who examined her bottom, which he thought appeared to be in good condition. The survey was required on account of damage sustained, most probably a grounding, after which she was destined for New York.

She was of 1,485 Gross Register Tonnage and registered to the Port of Cardiff having been built by 'Dixon', being Sir Raylton Dixon & Company Limited, Cleveland Dockyard, Middlesbrough-on-Tees, during 1874.
