Here there is a sloping slipway on which there is a cart to take boats in and out of the canal, and a winch. In the distance there are two blocks of terrace houses, both with a second floor. The block on the left has a row of individual plastic dormers, whilst the block on the right seems to have had the second floor added to the whole row in one building operation, presumably by the landlord of rented houses.
