Ferries of Gloucestershire by Joan Tucker
A history of the water crossings of Gloucestershire from the Aust-Beachley ferry to the smaller river ferries such as at Tewkesbury. It tells the story of the county's ferries through the past 1,000 years, from a time before bridges onwards. Joan Tucker takes us on a fascinating exploration of the history of the county's ferries, identifying isolated backwaters and popular tourist spots that once provided an essential transport link in this beautiful part of the world.
JOAN TUCKER has known the canal for the forty years; her family lived on a narrowboat at Walk Bridge in the early sixties. For the past twenty years she has been Archives Director of the Company of Proprietors of the Stroudwater Navigation.
