Thanks to John Burns for the corrections.

This 1904 view was taken at the Dingle end of the dock from either the bridge, or the path, leading to the oil installations or the Park Hill hospital.

In the middle distance (click the pic) you can see one of the two movable cranes used for coal processing. The second is there too if you look!  At this time operations in the dock were perhaps at the busiest in its history. The caesments on the right and the docl entrance are also clickable.

The full history of the dock is here.
