The King George V dock on the South Bank of the Clyde opened in 1931 and is now the only remaining working dock within the Glasgow City boundary. The large dock can accommodate ocean-going ships. Cargoes include animal feeds, grains, chemicals, industrial equipment and, more recently, wind turbines.
