The Boat Float, Dartmouth, Devon

The Boat Float is a trapezoidal enclosure for mooring small

boats. It is surrounded by reclaimed land on the north, west

and south sides and the South Embankment of c1889 forms the

east side, and here the road bridges a channel connecting the

float to the River Dart. A flight of steps lead down to the

water on the west side and there is a ramp down the east side.

Walls are made of roughly-cut blocks laid to courses.
