History

MILDRED was built in 1913 by R D Pill at Gorran Haven for W T Johns of Flushing in 1913. She was later sold to the author Howard Spring of Mylor who described her as'no fancy piece, no rich man's mistress, a worker not a plaything'. She was later owned by the artist, Peter Davis, also of Mylor. April 2010 (Picture courtesy of FQP Association/NMMC) April 2010
