Disused for most of the time. These lines would have been busy during the heydays of the Dockyard. Heavy Duty crane dockside left. Industrial units are springing up (typical:right) all over the docks as the Dockyard begins to make up for the reduced Royal Naval activity. Merchant vessels appear more frequent these days and probably account for some of the renewed activity, especially the Zeebrugge Superfast ferry.
