Great Britain, Scotland Clyde River: the "Nuddea" passing on the port of a westbound ship. she is on her way up the busy Clyde River to a berth in the harbor where she will be loaded with cargo before setting off on her maiden voyage. the Clyde river below Glasgow is under the control of Clyde Navigation Trust whose annual revenue of well over a million pounds is used in dredging, embarking, deck-building and repairing. today the Clyde River is a clear deep waterway but it was not always thus. 200 years ago it was a winding stream, wide but shallow, and it takes constant care to maintain the channel for the hundreds of ships that sail its waters
