EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, as a small ferry boat sets sail from Bridlington Harbour in East Yorkshire during the 1920s. The boat, which appears to be an excursion or pleasure craft, is leaving the harbour for a non-landing coastal cruise to Flamborough Head. The boat's quaint design, with its high, open deck and tall, slender funnel, is reminiscent of a bygone age of maritime travel. The scene is filled with a sense of tranquility and relaxation, as the boat cuts through the calm waters, leaving a gentle wake behind it. The passengers, dressed in their Sunday best, seem to be enjoying the journey, some leaning over the railings to take in the stunning coastal views, while others sit comfortably on the deck, chatting and laughing with one another. The harbour, with its colorful buildings and bustling activity, provides a lively contrast to the peaceful scene on the water. The sound of seagulls calling in the background and the smell of the salty sea air add to the sense of nostalgia and wonder. This photograph is a candid snapshot of a moment in time, offering a glimpse into the social history of coastal travel during the 1920s. It is a reminder of a simpler time, when a day out on the water was a cherished pleasure, and the journey was just as important as the destination.
