The port of Silloth mostly handles agricultural commodities including wheat imported for the adjacent Carr's Flour Mill. Two boats are moored in the inner harbour. Nearest the camera is a fishing boat. Behind is Cito which had arrived a few days earlier, discharged a cargo and was waiting to depart empty.
