Aggregates Quay, Langstone Harbour

Imageinuk Home Page > Langstone Aggregates Wharf Home Page > Aggregates Quay Image Archive
The wharf lies between the Hermitage stream to the left and another stream (I do not know the name of - if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated) to the right. A coaster will arrive every few days and deposit its load on the hard standing. Dumper trucks move the load into a hopper (seen below) from where it is moved on belts and dropped into the appropriate storage site.
