Pomona Docks was a set of 5 docks on the Manchester Ship Canal. Unlike the former docks in what is now Salford Quays, west of the Trafford Road swing bridge, there has been little redevelopment of the area as yet. Dock 3 (which connects to the Bridgewater Canal via Pomona lock) is the only dock which remains intact. Docks 1, 4 and 5 have been infilled, and only a short stump remains of dock 2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomona_Docks#Pomona_Docks (Manchester Docks, Wikipedia)
