Beverley Barge, the Syntan

In 2004 I was lucky enough to take a river journey on the then newly restored Beverley barge, the Syntan after receiving an invitation from Mr Iain Campbell of the Beverley Barge Preservation Society.
In 1999 Mr Campbell and his friends had discovered the Beverley barge Syntan as a wreck near Doncaster and had brought her back to Beverley to begin a "restoration" project and to this end had formed the Beverley Barge Preservation Society in order to raise the necessary finance to accomplish the task.
As Mr Campbell had been of considerable assistance to me, I created 3 small animations of the Syntan as a thank you to him for his assistance. To learn more about the Syntan or to contact Mr Campbell and his friends visit "http://www.syntanbarge.org.uk".
