The West Itchenor ferry, Chichester Harbour, West Sussex
The very useful foot (and bike!) ferry across the main Chicester channel. The channel eventually leads to the edge of the cathedral city of Chichester itself, the important remains of the Roman villa at Fishbourne and the site of the Roman harbour, now long silted up.
Part of a long and frustrating day's walk, the humid heat wave of late July broken overnight and replaced by flat grey cloud and a miserably cold wind I hadn't expected.
Taken with my phone as I thought I might need both hands for the ferry. A very useful service linking two remote corners of the harbour area, but also doing request stops, threading between the moored yachts on their buoys, picking up and dropping off their owners.
A long cold trudge of a day with few photographs due to the flat light.
