"Journeying through Time and Tide: The Legacy of Boatmen" Step back in time to witness the remarkable tales of boatmen who navigated rivers, canals, and seas, leaving an indelible mark on history. Meet Eustace Rogers, the last coracle man of Ironbridge in Shropshire, whose skillful maneuvers captivated all who witnessed his artistry. Picture yourself at Malpas Ferry in Cornwall around 1887, as you marvel at the bustling landing where boats arrived from Tregothnan. Transport yourself to Venice's enchanting Grand Canal and behold the iconic Rialto Bridge alongside a gondolier gracefully guiding their vessel—a scene that has earned its place as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Travel further back to 1804 when Thames Watermen ruled London's riverways with their expertise and unrivaled knowledge. Immerse yourself in Wales' rich heritage as you gaze upon Conwy Castle from its majestic landing place—where boatmen once ferried passengers across shimmering waters. Experience the raw power of nature with Ando Hiroshige's depiction of a Japanese Storm at Sea—an awe-inspiring reminder of the bravery displayed by seafaring souls. Witness history unfold before your eyes as you step aboard Bury's ferry during 1931—a testament to human ingenuity bridging gaps between communities. Explore Malta's Valletta and be transported into another era aboard a traditional Dghajsa boat—the echoes of past voyages whispering through every wave. Marvel at Florence's Ponte Vecchio spanning over River Arno—a timeless symbol connecting people throughout centuries.
