The Fishing Boat Harbour was built in 1922 with stone from Rocky Bay and proclaimed as a Harbour on 30.07.1924. In 1944 a 200 metre mole was built out at the foot of Grey Street to combat erosion. In 1949 a spur extension was added on the North side of the breakwater. On 30.08.1961, boundaries were amended and reclamation enabled relocation of the railway line so that boatbuilding activities could be sited on the Eastern shore.Date1974Photograph FormatPhotographDigital ItemYes
