The tilted structure crossing the road contains a conveyor that would have carried sugar from the Huskisson Dock to the left via the brick control tower to the right to be fed into the top of the concrete sugar silo visible behind the control tower. The structure was completed in 1957 and crosses the A5036 Regent Road.
