Rowing boats were a feature on Windermere long before the steam and petrol engine came to the lake.

This picture of rowing boats being worked on was taken in Bowness Bay, with Shepherds Boat Builders just visible in the background.

Do you know when this image was taken and who the individuals are who are working on the boats?
