Marine buildings, Penarth docks

Built in the 1860s, the offices of Penarth Docks (Marine Buildings, left) and Custom House (right) were part of the harbour of Penarth in the southwest of Cardiff bay. This was a separate operation from Cardiff Docks on the other side of the bay. Today, the Marine Buildings are derelict and in danger of collapse, while Custom House is used as a restaurant. Both the Marine Buildings Link

and Custom House Link

are in the Coflein database[1].
