EAST GRAVING DOCK: Built in 1873 and measuring 157.28m (516ft )
in length, this dock has a floating caisson dock gate and stepped ashlar sides. Its pump house, containing modern pumps, has a dramatic lean
because it stands on made-up ground. The timber storage sheds south of these have been replaced by new apartments. The West Dry Dock depicted
in the Telford Atlas, is filled in, its site the car park and landscaping to the south of the Apex Hotel, Dock Road.
