Sutton Bridge Riverside and Wharfage

A lovely couple of photographs submitted by Tim Bristow. The first picture was franked as 27th August 1913. It seems that it was printed by “J Crosland and Son, Post Office, Sutton Bridge”. Below that line is “V&S Ltd.” At the front lower rhs corner “53218.J.V.” can be see. John Valentine were prolific postcard producers. The picture is of a steam powered paddle tug…….very useful in the Nene on a windy day!

The second picture is pre WW1 and clearly after the year in which the address and the message could be on the same side of the card. From “History of the postcard” on Google that year was 1902. The picture shows a square rigged cargo ship at the wharfage.

  1. I’m really loving the theme/design of your website. Do you ever run into any
    browser compatibility issues? A couple of my blog readers have complained about my blog not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Safari.

    Do you have any recommendations to help fix this issue?

    1. We have had some issues with Elementor or more specifically a recent update, Hopefully they will update on Monday and issues should be fixed
      Regards
