What is recorded here

Stone built quay, constructed c.1840, with coursed stone walls, concrete steps descending to water level. Stone and cast-iron mooring posts located at regular intervals along the quayside. Metal crane in-situ.
This quay, located on the banks of the River Shannon, has remained an area of social and technical interest from the early nineteenth century to present. The crane survives as a reminder of the industrial heritage of the area and the importance of the quay as a gateway to economic and industrial livelihood of the town.
