The development of Falmouth Docks began in 1858 and the foundation stone was laid by Viscount Falmouth in 1860 although the location of this stone is not known. The first ship to enter the docks arrived in 1861.
The Docks are currently managed and operated by A&P. At present Falmouth has three graving docks that provide up to 100,000 dwt dry dock capacity. There is a total wharfage with craneage and all other technical services, of 2.5km.
The docks are about to embark on an exciting phase of redevelopment that it is envisaged will include a world class 300 berth marina called Port Falmouth Marina. This will herald a new phase in the history of Falmouth Docks that will see new investment bringing benefits, not just for Falmouth, but the whole of Cornwall.
The regeneration plans include the provision of a new cruise liner terminal capable of accommodating the latest super cruisers. These plans are currently under assessment.

A short break in Tenby, Pembrokeshire during 2010 allowed me to bash the last bit of the branch from Tenby to Pembroke Dock that I had chosen not to cover on a Hertfordshire Railtours HST Day Out tour many years earlier. The routine traction in 2010 was the class 150, although a 153 also put in an appearance. The line was controlled by Tyers Single Line instruments at Tenby and retained much of the steam-age infrastructure and atmosphere.
