| Indentations left by railway sleepers. The lines were dismantled in 1926, following the cessation of commercial shipping visiting the port in 1922. The line from Roche was originally opened in 1850 and was worked by horses. The quays were accessed via an inclined plane in tunnel, under Newquay |

The central quay has the old wooden quay which carried goods to and from the railway station via the "Trams". The tunnel onto the harbour is still there. |
