Hampton Ferry. In service on the Dover to Dunkerque route. Dover, ca. 1951.

The Hampton Ferry, in service on the Dover to Dunkerque route, is pictured at a concrete pier in Dover, circa 1951. The vessel, with its dark hull and white superstructure, emits a plume of dark smoke from a single funnel. In the background, the iconic white cliffs rise from the coastline, crowned by a prominent castle and other buildings under an overcast sky. A small crane is positioned on the pier, and a few people can be seen on the ship’s deck near the bow.
