MPX5158338: Eustace Rogers builds coracles but the demand for this ancient form of transport has fallen in the past few hundred years.

He commutes, of course, by coracle - three miles on the River Seven. Its ideal for reflective lunch breaks and there are no no parking problems either. March 1967 (b/w photo) / Bridgeman Images
