According to the current owner she's an Uffa King built in 1936 - see info and pic below:
Built by Banham of Cambridge 1936, owner killed in Normandy landings, family kept and sailed her at Brancaster - see photo.
 
Substantially re-furbished by Jack Chippendale about 20 years ago - new deck and possibly keel.
She has hardly made it to the water since.
Most of her fittings are original including a suit of cotton sails.
Now in what appears to be in very sound condition although the wooden mast will require some attention.
A great piece of history.
Lots of family background - the lady sailing her in photo is current owner's grandmother - Felicity Beerbohm-Tree
