More about this scene

This view shows the winding channel of some 4 miles between the open sea and the quayside. Its accompanying embankment was built to its present state in November 1897 after the 'Black Monday' storm severely damaged the old one. This 19th-century embankment has held well despite sporadic flood damage.
