Interesting how it all decayed in the 1960's.
Been reading a book called "The Box" and how the little port of Felixstowe
has taken it all away from London.
"losses" in the London Docks were massive, where bits of consignments went 'missing' . First approach to the problem was the enormous wall round the docks, then containers were suggested, but the London Dockers wouldn't accept containers (I wonder why ever not ) Lots of union problems in the London Docks.
Tilbury and Felixtowe took the business as they accepted containerisation
