Sandbanks Chain Ferry No. 1 - Entrance to Poole Harbour
The No.1 steam-powered Sandbanks chain ferry. Sandbanks Ferry is a vehicular chain ferry which crosses the entrance of Poole Harbour in the English county of Dorset. The route runs from Sandbanks to Studland and in doing so connects the coastal parts of the towns of Bournemouth and Poole with Swanage and the Isle of Purbeck. This avoids a 25-mile journey by road on a return trip. Introduced in 1926 to carry pedestrians and cars across the entrance to Poole Harbour, between Studland and Sandbanks. Built by J. Samuel White & Co Ltd on the Isle of Wight, this ferry, which could carry up to 15 cars (later 18), operated from 1926 to 1958. The No.1 ferry remained the primary vessel even after the No.2 ferry entered service in 1952. Both No.1 and No.2 ferries were withdrawn in 1958, with the introduction of the Diesel-Electric powered No.3 ferry. Date: circa 1940
