This week we take a nostalgic look at The Hard and the introduction of a new service marking the city’s growth as a ferry port.

As always, we’re in the company of photographer and bus fan John Kirby, of Stubbington Avenue, North End, Portsmouth.

Thanks for all your e-mails and letters saying how much you’ve enjoyed this series.

Another collection from John will follow later this year.
