Cornwall Postcard: Bude, The Canal Basin and Maritime Sailing Ships XT1999
The Bude Canal was a remarkable 19th-century engineering feat, originally built to transport mineral-rich sea sand to inland farms to improve the soil. This view captures the lower basin, a hub of maritime activity where traditional sailing vessels like the Alford and Ceres were frequently moored. While the canal's industrial role declined by the late 1800s, the basin and its sea lock remained a central feature of the Bude landscape, transitioning into a popular spot for visitors and leisure activities.
This is an unused standard size postcard published by The Photochrom Co. Ltd., London and Tunbridge Wells and manufactured in the United Kingdom.
Please also use the image magnifier to make your own assessment on the condition. Please ignore any lines caused by the scanner.
When possible all of our postcards will be posted to you inside a collectable plastic postcard sleeve and a board backed envelope which will be marked 'Please do not bend'.
Any 'Mo's Postcards' watermark does not appear on the actual postcard'.
