Weston Point Docks.
Known as the Jewel in the crown of British Waterways Freight division the docks are now virtually abandoned except for a few sunken vessels. A couple of attempts were made by private companies to reuse the docks for shipping when BW shut down their freight operation all attempts were unsuccessful. The quays and warehouses are now utilised by none shipping organisations
