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.

The ship at the end of the road
Looking down Bogmoor Road towards King George V Dock, where three cruise ships (Azamara Pursuit, Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest) are currently laid-up. They will remain there until the end of the Covid-19 pandemic when business can return to normal.

Wind turbine parts
Parts of towers and blades for large wind turbines beside King George V Dock. The area in the foreground is currently being cleared of scrub and small trees - presumably in anticipation of expansion of the site.

Site of old railway
There were many lines in this area to serve the Kinge George V Dock (behind the trees) and the now gone Braehead power station. There was also a line to Renfrew. Viewed from the bridge at Kings Inch Road, near the Shieldhall roundabout.
