Richard Scott talks about the Ferry Road scroll in his book ‘Artists at Walberswick’, he writes
‘In 1930 Doman Turner had performed a practice run (of the Walberswick Scroll) by painting a much smaller scrolls depicting the rambling and high individual beach houses along Ferry Road, Southwold. Many of those buildings were lost in the 1953 flood. Included on this scroll, but also long vanished, was the artists own summer residence, a caravan parted from its wheels, mounted on a solid plinth and named Jane, after a lady friend.’
