HC Deb 17 November 1908 vol 196 c1030
MR. FELL (Great Yarmouth)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Admiralty what is the depth of water over the sills at Messrs. R. Stephenson's docks at Hepburn-on-Tyne.

MR. McKENNA

The answer to the hon. Member's Question is, 29 feet over the sill at high-water springs.

MR. FELL

Will there be this depth of water on more than two or three days a fortnight?

MR. McKENNA

I assume the hon. Member correctly describes the high water springs.
