As MV Farringford commences the 16.50 sailing to Hull Corporation

Pier New Holland Pier is seen in all its rickety glory! Whilst the timber piles nearest to the camera are fixed into the bed of the Humber estuary the centre section is a floating pontoon that rises and falls with the ebb and flow of the tide. Whilst the ferry service from the pier has long ceased the pier is still very much in use now as a grain loading facility with fairly large coasters able to berth at the pier.
