Grimsby Lifeboat Station

[1][2] Manchester Unity was only back at Grimsby for a short time, before being replaced by the Charles Burton (ON 526) in 1904.

A 38-foot non-self-righting Liverpool-class (P&S) lifeboat, the boat was built by Thames Ironworks, and named after her benefactor, the late Charles T. M. Burton.

[2] In a 45-year period, the Grimsby lifeboat had been called 40 times, and saved 19 lives.

A busy port location, the redundant boathouses were quickly demolished, and no evidence remains today.

[1][2] In 2023, the Humber Lifeboat Station was forced to permanently abandon their base on Spurn Point due to a failing jetty, and further coastal erosion, and relocated to Grimsby.
