see image record [EPW032845] The docks, Ipswich, 1930 My competition entry for the most Thames barges in a photo. I make it thirteen. The same scene in nineteen years later and barely four can be counted. A close up of a Thames barge on the New Cut can be seen: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kindredspirituk/10051404545/in/photostream/ Today this promenade has been 'privatised' and the few Thames barges that remain, pay their maintenance through pleasure cruses for the public.
