Summary
Moored at the Ferry Quay in Woodbridge, Tommy Lee is a fully operational, live aboard house boat which has been restored in recent years and now offers beautifully presented accommodation.

Description
Built by J. Pollock, Son & Co in 1938, Tommy Lee is a fully operational, live aboard house boat which has been restored in recent years and now offers beautifully presented accommodation. Moored at the Ferry Quay in Woodbridge, offering convenient access to Woodbridge's shopping and recreational amenities. The Tommy Lee is believed to have been under Admiralty control during the Second World War towing ammunition barges up the river Thames for loading on to the warships.
