EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene at Dartmouth, England, in 1919 as The Mew, a historic Great Western Railway ferry, makes its way across the sparkling blue waters of the River Dart towards Kingswear. The Mew, which operated from 1908 to 1954, was a vital link between the two shores, providing essential transportation for passengers and goods. The image showcases the elegant design of the ferry, with its tall, slender funnel and distinctive red and cream livery. The boat's stern is adorned with the Great Western Railway crest, a proud symbol of its long and storied history. The water is calm and still, reflecting the clear blue sky above, and the shoreline of Dartmouth is dotted with picturesque cottages and tall, historic buildings. The Mew was a much-loved and integral part of the community in Dartmouth and Kingswear for over four decades. It played a crucial role in the daily lives of local residents, as well as attracting visitors from far and wide who came to experience the beauty of the area and the unique charm of the ferry crossing. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into a bygone era when travel was slower, more intimate, and deeply connected to the natural world. The Mew may no longer be in operation, but its legacy lives on in the memories of those who experienced it and in the many photographs and stories that have been passed down through the generations.
