Ship: LH

Place: Newcastle

Details: The wharves form a leading feature of Newcastle. In early days, the only jetty in the harbour was situated at the foot of Watt-street. The street was lengthened by throwing ballast into the river, and the wooden jetty was extended, to allow small vessels to load and unload. There was little improvement in wharf accommodation till the railway was commenced in 1855. In 1858, it became necessary to reclaim the land for the Railway terminus, and to lay down sidings for the shipment of coal. Sand was rolled down the space over which the tide flowed, up to the upper line of Scott-street, and was filled up to the Market Wharf. The front was piled and planked, and thus the long line of wharf was reclaimed from the harbour. Steam cranes were erected, rails laid down, and ships were enabled to lie alongside, in water from 13 to 20 feet deep. Staiths were erected, at a considerable outlay, to the west of the wharf, but there is not such a depth of water there as at the cranes. Between the cranes and the staiths lies the boat harbour, at the northern end of Market-street. It has lately been enlarged and improved, and now has a frontage of 510 feet, of which 250 feet is reserved for the use of settlers landing produce, &c. ; 160 feet for watermen s boats, and 100 feet for slips and sheds for boats belonging to the Government departments.
