Discussing getting stuck, this is Chichester Market Cross , centre of town, used to be a vehicle thoroughfare, now my first trip there, usual asking mates for best way to the local morris mg dealer, down the A34, A27 fine until first Chichester signpost(should have been the second) I finished up getting stuck trying to negotiate this obstacle (the dealer was just the other side) 
The top deck overhang (artic) on lock wouldn’t clear the building, if I remember rightly with plod watching I actually finished up going right instead of left to get round, long time ago, but not forgotten. There was another tight corner in Henley on Thames one way system for artic transporter top deck overhang where a house was clobbered a few times, I guess the marks are still there.

Hi Oily, Two good shots of the MDHB floating crane Sampson, built by Cowans Sheldon Ltd, Carlisle last seen wrecked off Ram Head Southern Ireland while being towed to Malta in the early 1990s I came across it here circa 1996.
Cheers , Leyland 600.
Cheers Leyland 600 for the pics
Mammoth and Samson Liverpool 1981, again thanks to Phil Brandwood for sharing. Hopefully the Mammoth survives somewhere better than the now wreck of the Samson.
