This is how folk used to travel to/from France in 1960...

 

The structure ahead of the ferry is the old submarine pens, now long demolished.

 

The modern ferries are very much larger than the "Maid of Kent"!

This is what happens when the larger, more modern ones reach the end of their lives.

The final voyage of former P&O cross-Channel ferry "Pride of Calais"...

Here's one of the new replacements now in service between Dover and Calais - "Spirit of Britain".
