The Ocean Alliance at the Repair Quay at the Great Harbour in 1986. Changed days, the destructor's chimney to the left is now demolished, and was part of the councils waste disposal process. The gasometers at Ichgreen have also gone. They were part of the Inchgreen Power Station that was on the site of Inchgreen Dry Dock. The land in the foreground was at this time farmland, used for grazing cattle. It is now a woodland.
