18SAN - Richborough Port - barge construction dock area

This photo shows Richborough Port looking towards the sea and gives some idea of the size of the installation. Of particular interest is the barge being built on the slipway on the left of the picture- Richborough Port had workshops and a smithy to facilitate the construction of vessels.
