EDITORS COMMENTS
A Blast from the Past: The Brighton Ferry Crossing the English Channel between Dieppe and Newhaven in 1910 This photograph captures the historic moment of the Brighton ferry leaving the picturesque French port of Dieppe for Newhaven in England, around the year 1910. The steamer ferry, with its distinctive funnel and elegant lines, cuts through the calm waters, leaving a trail of ripples in its wake. The clifftop of Dieppe, with its quaint houses and church, serves as a striking backdrop to the scene. The lighthouse, standing tall and proud, sends out a beacon of light to guide the ferry safely on its journey. The peaceful harbor, dotted with boats and ships, adds to the serene atmosphere of the image. As the ferry departs, passengers can be seen on the deck, some enjoying a cigarette (fags) as they take in the breathtaking views of the coastline. The sense of excitement and anticipation is palpable as the ferry begins its crossing, marking the start of a new adventure for those on board. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era when travel across the English Channel was an adventure in itself. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural connections between England and France, and the importance of the sea as a means of transportation and communication between the two countries.
