Studland, Ferry c.1960

More about this scene
The lifeline between Poole and Purbeck, crossing between Sandbanks (right) and Shell Bay (left), is the Floating Bridge. 'Ferry No.1', dating back to the inauguration of the service in 1926, was supplemented by postwar 'Ferry No.2' in the 1920s. The first tended to break down and the second could only carry eight cars. In the picture is the much larger 'Ferry No.3' - they were otherwise unnamed - which was built by J Bolson and Son Limited of Poole. She came into service in 1958.
