Edward Hannaford was born in Salcombe in 1930. He was apprenticed to Dornom's boatyard when he was 14 and he became a master boatbuilder. Edward has spent his life working on and around the water. He joined the lifeboat crew in 1951. The new development in Island Street, 'Hannaford's Landing', is named after him.

I had made friends with his daughters and Edward became a dear friend in the ensuing years. He and his wife, Sheila, took me under their wing when I first moved to Salcombe. Edward employed me in his boatyard and taught me pretty well everything I know about boats, woodwork and dignity. Edward and Sheila have encouraged me in all aspects of my life. Edward Hannaford - ”An Old Salcombe Soul” CD I made many field recordings of local characters in Salcombe during the first years of the 21st century for the Salcombe Maritime Museum. Edward and I agreed in 2005 that it would be a good idea if we recorded his reminiscences for posterity and we enjoyed many happy evenings in his home recording ourselves chatting. Although it never crossed our minds to start with, it soon became obvious that a cd of some of our conversations would be welcomed by the world. I released Edwards first cd "An Old Salcombe Soul" on my label, Limbic System Music, and it is available in local shops (including Salters Bookshelf) and local museums. It is also available from this website on the shop page. This picture was kindly supplied by Geoff Foale, a local fisherman, photographer and all round good man. Edward is tucked away at the back but the picture is a priceless image of Salcombe men in The Burner's Victoria Inn, circa 1950. Edward and you I'd love to publish any contributions to this page.
