  <dc:title>Contract files: CS Swan &amp; Hunter</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Includes a few files for ships built by Coulson &amp; Cooke, CS Swan's predecessor on the Wallsend site.

Note: the Sunderland output of Austin &amp; Hunter, 1874-1879, was retrospectively added to the Swan &amp; Hunter yard list (probably c 1888), as nos. 106-128. Swan &amp; Hunter numbers 106-107 had already been assigned ('Elingamite' and 'New Amsterdam'), and contemporary records of these two ships are under those yard numbers, but they were subsequently renumbered as nos. 129-130. Probably owing to this confusion, the series includes a few records of Austin &amp; Hunter ships. The retrospective numbering has therefore been retained for clarity.</dc:description>
