Description

A heifer being transported to Skomer Island from Martin's Haven, c.1910.

"Cattle had been transported to Skomer since prehistoric times. The first photographic record is from 1889, but it is the photographs taken c.1910 that provide a much cleaer idea of the effort involed. Geoffrey Codd's book Skomer Memories contains some tremendous photographs of cattle being loaded into a small boat in the 1940s."
Skomer Island, Mike Alexander, 2021
