Normannia

The Normannia was built in 1952 as a passenger ship for the Southampton - Le Havre service and converted to a stern loading car ferry for the Dover - Boulogne run in 1964. 

On 9 July 1965 she opened the new car ferry link between Holyhead and Dun Laoghaire pending the late arrival of the new Holyhead Ferry 1 from her builders. The Normannia was released on 19 July when she returned to the English Channel and there she continued to operated until 1978 when she was sold for scrap
