Sharpness Docks opened in 1874 making the original entrance to The Gloucester & Sharpness Canal, opened in 1827, redundant. The docks today is Gloucestershire’s only working country port, but nothing old fashioned about this modern complex. Ships trade here from far and wide with a numerous type of mainly cargoes in bulk.
Many fascinating things can be seen as you walk around the perimeter of the docks, the River Severn, Gloucester & Sharpness Canal and if you are lucky a ship or two moving in and out of the port.
