Hiking
"The MV Snowdrop was originally namedWoodchurch and was the sister ship of the MV Mountwood. Both ferries were built for Birkenhead Corporation and were based loosely on the designs of the Wallasey ferries Leasowe and Egremont. They were built by the same company, Messrs. Philip & Son Ltd. of Dartmouth and designed by naval architects Graham and Woolnough. There was some local surprise when the contract was awarded to Philip & Son because the Cammell Laird shipyards were "next door" to the Birkenhead Ferry Terminal and it was thought that Lairds would automatically build the new ferries."
