EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to Wallingford, August 1925, where the Chalmore Ferry gracefully glides across the tranquil waters of the River Thames. In this print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR, a man skillfully operates a punt as he transports passengers and goods between the riverbanks. The iconic Ferrymans Cottage stands proudly in the center, its charming facade reflecting a bygone era. Once an essential mode of transportation for locals and visitors alike, today this historic landmark has been transformed into a delightful holiday home known as Chalmore Hole Ferry House. Its walls hold stories whispered by Jerome K. Jerome's characters in his timeless novel 'Three Men in a Boat. ' This picturesque scene captures not only the beauty of Wallingford but also its rich history. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era when life moved at a slower pace and simplicity reigned supreme. The gentle ripples on the river mirror our nostalgic yearning for simpler times gone by. Wallingford's Chalmore Ferry remains etched within our collective memory as both an emblematic symbol of community connection and an idyllic retreat from bustling city life. Let us cherish these remnants of our past that continue to inspire awe and wonderment.
