Supporting the Barge Preservation Trust with our Marine Paint

We are proud to have contributed to the restoration of BARGE 9, a 1928 Humber Keel located in Oulton Broad, Lowestoft.

This historic vessel has been given a new lease of life and transformed into a charming tearoom, bar, and restaurant. The conversion project has been carried out by skilled local tradespeople and dedicated volunteers. Once completed, the profits from the business will be used to support community outreach projects in the local area.

Witham Group has played a vital role in this restoration project by providing:
» Woco Black Bitumen: Used for the hull of the barge.
» Woco 370 Supercote: Applied to the above-water steelwork.

We are proud that our Woco Paint products have helped to protect and preserve the barge’s structure, ensuring its longevity for generations to come.
