Crane Floats through Tonbridge

It's not every day you can see a crane floating down the river through Tonbridge, but this is exactly what happened as Day 2 of construction work on Weir View Scout Hut got underway.

Two more photos by Peter Ellis taken yesterday as pontoons are floated towards The Scout Hut. Here they have passed under the bridge and are behind the new Bradford Street apartment.

The image below is just before negotiating the bridge.

Something is Afloat in Tonbridge

A Major repair is needed to the Scout Hut off Avebury Avenue with the deterioration of the metal supports.

Today saw the arrival of a number of transporters in Tonbridge carrying a variety of Pontoon Parts.

Here are a few photographs taken by Peter Ellis of the start of the work.

Peter Ellis Film

Peter Ellis has made community films of Tonbridge for a number of years. On previous occasions I've posted his work on the Tonbridge Arts Festival, Carnival and many other events.

Although this film is not about Tonbridge, Peter has captured the beauty of autumn in his latest film of Sheffield Park. It's not too far away to enjoy a visit before the leaves completely fall, and the seasonal colours are lost.

If you want to see Peter's films on Tonbridge they are all available to view on YouTube.
