Paddle Steamer Tattershall Castle - Pub on the Thames.
The steamer was built by William Gray & Company in 1934 as a passenger ferry on the Humber for the London and North Eastern Railway. She plied the Humber Ferry route between Corporation Pier in Kingston upon Hull, Yorkshire, and New Holland Pier in New Holland, Lincolnshire. During the Second World War she found service as a tether for barrage balloons and to ferry troops and supplies along the River Humber to wherever they were required. With the nationalization of the railways in 1948, she became part of British Rail's Sealink service. In 1973, after long service as a passenger and goods ferry, she was retired and laid up. In 1976 the ship was towed to London
