replies: text: It means just what it says - the ways (where the ships were built) were under cover, ie protected from the weather by buildings which surrounded them. This was highly unusual in an era where ship ways were normally exposed to the elements. Gatoclass (talk) 13:24, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
