Felixstowe Ferry - A Documentary

A mini documentary created for a college project back in 2012. Directed and produced by myself with assistance from some of the other students. I would love to have had more time to make this much better as there are so many things wrong with it!

Might also add , that in the 1940s there was a Ferryman who managed with one hand misssing , so he had a metal Crook , but he mastered being able to actually Row a boat using his Crook ; yes there were many Individules residing at the Ferry in them early days .
