The Crescent Quay represents the deep pool around which the original Viking town was founded. After the building of the quays on reclaimed land in the early 19th century, the flow of water was changed and the Crescent silted up. The quayside railway bridge was added in the 1880s and a marina has since been established as part of a waterfront development. |
