The docks early morning

and the New Cut Gaol Ferry pedestrian bridge to Bedminster in the extras.  The NC was dug by hand as a by-pass of the harbour when it had locks installed at either end to make it a 'floating' as opposed to a tidal harbour.  There is lots more information here about the area.  http://www.bristolfloatingharbour.org.uk/harbour-trails/heritage-trails/the-new-cut/
