Swansea Barrage and the Old South Docks.

Following on from my last post, we continued our walk around what I believe is the old south dock, I remember going fishing there when I was still in school and caught my first ever fish a Scad or Horse Mackerel off one of the pontoons that is no longer there. I also remember the seeing the first stages of the construction of the barrage but back then it was a mass of steel girders and not the picturesque weir pool it is today.

I've also been through the lock gates on a boat when I got a job on one of the boats but that only lasted one day as my legs are far from sea legs and to say that I suffer from sea sickness is an understatement.

I quite enjoyed walking around the docks and seeing how far this place has come since I last visited it over a decade ago.
