Swansea Docks Development New apartments in the SA1 Development in Swansea
Jersey Marine Beach Swansea Docks and Sewage Works in the background.
Swansea through the sail bridge Looking towards Mayhill and Townhill.
SA1 Development The new SA1 development takes shape.The chimney stack is being incorporated into the new design - a fluid mix of old and new. Very nice. Town Hill looks down on ever changing Swansea.
Tawe crossings Looking downstream along the River Tawe. Taken from the sail bridge 357849, towards the former railway bridge which linked the former South Dock with the main Swansea dock complex. The original Swansea Harbour & Improvement Trust soon changed their name to Swansea Harbour Trust. (Much more respectable initials!!!)

Ice house apartments
The apartment was ok. Bedside table broken, bin lid wouldn’t shut. Hairs in bedroom and bathroom Floor dusty, needed a good clean! The worst thing was the noise from the surrounding bars and cafes, booming music all day and most of the evening, couldn’t relax or sit outside
