Today's photo is the first of a new batch of 'Us' and 'Vs' and is the Vehicular Ferry No. 2.

I have no idea who the builder is or the date so any suggestions would be welcome.



There is some information about the vehicular ferries on this site which states that in the 1950’s when vehicular ferries provided the cross-river service on the Clyde their odd appearance is explained:
"by the fact that they were essentially large floating lifts. The vehicle deck could be raised or lowered according to the tidal level at fixed docking points."
