Swansea Docks

This photo is taken from the top of Kilvey Hill and clearly shows the change of use of Swansea Docks. Once a thriving dock with ships arriving and departing from all over the world, many of the older buildings have now been cleared and are being replaced by non dock related commercial enterprises and residential buildings. The area has been made more marketable by the development of the Tawe Barrage.
