These are on the site of the former West Quay warehouses, which were built in the 1830s and demolished in the 1960s. Llanthony Warehouse http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6097138 (1873) on the left now houses the National Waterways Museum. To its right can be seen Llanthony lift bridge http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4680396 through which the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal (1827) leaves the basin towards the Severn estuary. https://www.gloucesterdocks.me.uk/gloucester/docks.htm
