Walberswick, The Ferry c.1955

More about this scene
The Victorian chain ferry was replaced by a steam ferry, which sank in 1942. The service was revived with a rowing boat after the Second World War. Here the postman with his cycle waits for passengers to disembark so he can deliver mail in Walberswick - a routine which continued into the 1980s. The boatman was Bob Cross, who only handed over to his nephew David Church in 1991.
