Meadowside Quay

Two men loading sacks of grain directly on to a railway wagon using a motorised conveyor belt at Meadowside Quay, 1918. The Meadowside Granary towers above them in the background. These sacks may have been loaded for transportation directly from the quay to their ultimate destination, but most imported grain was stored in the granary until agents or manufacturers required it.
