Freshspring

A photographic record of the SS Freshspring on the Torridge, across three visits.

Photography - Video

The SS Freshspring is a historic steam-driven Royal Fleet Auxiliary ship moored at Bideford Quay, where she's being cared for and slowly restored. These photographs are from three visits over four years - returning to the same vessel as the seasons and the work shift around her.

For the history of the ship and the restoration project, visit Freshspring on Time & Place.
