Piel Castle from Roa Island
1940s-1950s
This view from Roa Island is framed by the shingle beach, the Lifeboat Station slipway, with Pilot boat number 1 sitting at the bottom, and the public pier. Youngsters at the bottom of the public pier have a moored sailing boat as the fully-loaded ferry heads to Piel Island where the castle, pub, pilots’ cottages and boathouse are silhouetted against a bright sky. Many boats are moored in Piel Bay.
