Notes on Crane taken from sign on site.
This 200 tonne shipping crane was originally one of a pair, built in 1957 at Cory's Wharf on Rochester Riverside. It had a 10 tonne lift capacity, they were used to unload aggregates for the nearby cement works. the cranes were dismantled in 2006 to allow the construction of the new river wall. In 2007, one crane was reassembled and re-painted in its original colour before being erected at the edge of Blue Boar Creek. The crane provides a link with the sites historical past and acts like a new landmark for the area. Following the forthcoming re-development of the Riverside, the crane will be flanked by new residential buildings.
