EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this 19th-century photograph of a ferry on the Wensum river at Watergate, Norwich. The image transports us to a bygone era, where horse-drawn carts and pedestrians make their way across the river using the humble yet essential means of transport - the ferry. The mid-century ferry, powered by the current and the strength of a single man, is a testament to the resourcefulness and ingenuity of the people of Norwich during this period. The Watergate, a historic site in Norwich, is depicted in all its glory, with its impressive Tudor-style arches and the tranquil Wensum river flowing gently around it. The ferryman, dressed in traditional attire, stands steadfastly at the helm, ready to guide his vessel safely across the river. The horses, harnessed to the carts, wait patiently on the opposite bank, their breath visible in the crisp, cool air. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of Norwich and its transport system. The Wensum ferry played a vital role in connecting the two sides of the city, enabling the exchange of goods and services, and facilitating the movement of people. The image invites us to reflect on the simplicity and charm of a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the everyday tasks of crossing a river were an adventure in themselves. The photograph, taken in the 19th century, is a beautiful reminder of Norwich's past and the role that the Wensum ferry played in shaping its history. It is a treasure trove of historical significance, offering a unique perspective on the daily life of the people of Norwich during this period.
