Where's the Regatta?

Quays and Wharves of Ipswich is the title of a new pamphlet produced by Ipswich Maritime Trust. "The aim of the Trust, in asking Bob Malster to research for this article. is to encourage all those involved in the future redevelopment of Ipswich's historic Waterfront to recognise the importance of the old quay names, and of the need to reinstate them in their rightful locations, in preference to new and entirely irrelevant names of no local significance."

In a few hundred words much history of the dock is interestingly covered. Reproductions of paintings and old photographs illustrate some of the places mentioned. The aim is to seek public interest and support before further steps are taken. More details can be found at the IMT website or by contacting Des Pawson.
