Stalham Norfolk Broads

I spent my first Christmas at Stalham (my grandmother had the pub). I don't know if I went back as a small child, certainly by the time I was 9 or 10 she'd moved to run a tearoom in West Runton.

This too is Halfpenny Bridge, and once crossed a canal. But where is it?

The Rochdale Branch canal.

There have been at least two previous Halfpenny Bridges in photographs at the foot of the Tinsley flight. From the city archive:

The area has changed out of all recognition. Not just the bridge.

Indeed it is. This is the view from the bridge in 1955. Nothing in that view now remains.

Last night, Plymouth. Had a guided tour around this tanker which we'd been called to a few days previously to help an unwell crewman.

 

Brings a new perspective to losing visibility under the bow, and yes he did have a bowthruster and no, I didn't call him a cissy 😄
