Albion Dock Bristol
Albion Dock built in 1820 is the last working dry dock in Bristol Harbour. She was used to build merchant and Royal navy vessels throughout her working life up until 1976, including over 20 war ships during WW2.
After lying derelict for many years since it's closure, the dry dock has been acquired by the SS Great Britain Trust who have plans to turn it into a conservation, maritime education and heritage tourism project.
