I get the idea this crane has a fixed jib. never having seen anything like it before ( I’ve lived in 7 ports)
I reckon it deserves better billing. Regards, R.M.CAMERON ( no relation)

  Hi there, thanks for the message! The crane is, I believe, the last working survivor of its type. You can read more about it here under ‘Fairbairn Steam Crane’ – http://www.bristolmuseums.org.uk/m-shed/whats-at/working-exhibits/
  Hope that is interesting for you!
