New housing development on the site of the old fish quay, with The Citadel Leisure Centre to the left. The only boat in the South Harbour now is The Coffee Boat. The piers in the river belong to a former railway bridge which carried a spur line from the original railway station on the north bank to the quayside on the south bank.
