Hi Tony
LLANGOLLEN (5056 grt) was completed in February 1928 by R. & W. Hawthorn, Leslie & Co Ltd, Hebburn for Llangollen SS Co Ltd (Evan Thomas, Radcliffe & Co), London. The ship survived the war and on 8 February 1950 was sold to Societe de Navegacion Albion SA (Nicholas A. Simbouras, Athens), Panama and renamed ARETI S. 1956 renamed MARIA CRISTINA for Cia Internacional de Navegacion e Comercio SA, Panama. 1959 renamed KETTARA III for Cia Minière et Metallurgique, Panama. On 7 February 1960 arrived at Nagoya to be broken up at Yokosuka.
