La Marguerite was a paddle steamer built in 1894 by Fairfield at Govan, Glasgow.
Engines : Compound diagonal
Considerably larger than any previous vessel on the Thames service, La Marguerite was mostly used on the France / Belgium run.
La Marguerite became an extremely popular vessel, but was expensive to run and never consistently profitable.
Withdrawn after the 1903 season and transfered to the Fairfield-owned Liverpool & North Wales Steamship Co
Served Llandudno and the Menai Bridge from Liverpool, remaining on station until 1925.
