19u46: Humber Dock and Railway Dock entrance, 1979 - The Old Town
Previous Next
The picture shows the state of Humber Dock in 1979, and also the entrance to Railway Dock. The sheds behind the Railway Dock warehouses were a goods shed and rail warehouses, with lines joined to the LNER (latterly BR Easten Region) lines a mile or two to the west. The tall warehouses are a little under a half of an impressive range that had earlier stood beside Railway Dock, the rest being demolished in the early 1970s.
