Esk Boathouse

  • Description

    "....Notice:- -- 'Ere Metal Brig or Rail were thowt on, / Here Honest Will the Boatman rowt on / Gentle and simple he did guide / to either Scotch or English side, / wi' them on horseback he did ride / an' boat the footman. / An' none did ever dread the tide / wi' Will the Boatman / Now tho' Will's work is done an' o'er / an' Will himself lies quiet, / yet lives his SPIRIT here - step in an' try it. / Ne'er Time nor Tide can half so pure supply it.' ..."
