Webinar: Crossing the Cam by Ferry: Cambridge Museum of Technology Volunteers' Webinar, June 2020
Channel: Cambridge Museum of Technology
Date: 08/06/2020

David Stubbings, Chairman of Chesterton Local History Group and volunteer at Cambridge Museum of Technology presents an illustrated history of the ferries that once provided transport across the river Cam, connected people and enabled trade over centuries of Cambridge’s history. 

The modern river Cam is home to boats of many shapes and sizes, from punt boats to rowing boats to barges, house-boats and river cruisers. Although ferries have disappeared from the maritime landscape in Cambridge, traces of their legacy still survive on the banks of the river Cam. Join this webinar to find out where!
