Map of Western Docks
Construction on the `New Docks` started in 1927. Now known as
the Western Docks, they were opened in 1934 for use by both
passenger and cargo ships. At the western end of the 7542ft
(2.26km) long quay is the King George V dry-dock - one of the
largest dry docks in the world. Southampton also has a large
container and vehicle terminal. The maps in this section show Southampton as it was in 1944. The
shaded area over the river shows the site of the container
terminal, opened in stages from 1968. The numbers on the map mark the locations of individual berths.
