What is recorded here
Dressed limestone harbour, built 1822, with dressed limestone retaining walls having dressed limestone paving with metal railings to top. Cast-iron cranes to water's edge with cast-iron cogs and arms on square-profile supports with circular bases. Maker's marks in relief.
Well executed quay displays finely crafted stone, its survival is a testament to the skill involved in its construction. Forms a group with the storehouses and is an important part of the heritage of Haulbowline Island. Cranes to site are an interesting feature, which would have been important in unloading vessels.
