EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken by Aerofilms Ltd in 1952, captures the bustling activity at Harwich Ferry's Trinity Pier and Train Ferry Berth in Essex. The image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the importance of maritime transport during the mid-20th century. The ferry, docked at the pier, is a testament to the vital role it played in connecting Harwich to the European mainland. The train ferry, with its distinctive profile, is seen here in its final years of service before being replaced by the Strood Road Rail Tunnel, which opened in 1953, allowing trains to travel directly to the continent without the need for a ferry. The pier itself is a hive of activity, with various boats and vessels moored alongside. The presence of the train station in the background further emphasizes the interconnectedness of land and sea transport during this era. The photograph also reveals the picturesque landscape of Harwich, with its charming buildings and winding roads leading away from the pier. This image is a poignant reminder of the rich maritime history of Harwich and the essential role the ferry played in facilitating travel and trade between the UK and Europe. The photograph, now part of the Historic England Archive, invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the significant changes that have taken place in transportation over the decades.
