Relationship to adjoining land uses/other boatyard facilities:
The land adjoining the site (on both sides) has been redeveloped for flats. A pub is
situated opposite the site across Ferry Street. South Dock Marina is located
approximately 0.5 mile upstream on the South Bank whilst Welding Marine is
approximately 0.25 miles downstream (also on the South Bank).
Access arrangements (capacity, proximity to major roads):
The site has direct access onto Ferry Road (a local road) which joins Westferry Road
(a local distributor road).
