SILOS at Sharpness Docks and the Fromebridge Mill in Whitminster take centre stage in Nostalgia this week.

These are photographs taken from former Gazette photographer David Ireland's Facebook page David Ireland's Gazette Pictures From The Past.

Sharpness Dock developed further during the later stages of the nineteenth century after a new dock was built to help accommodate the newer, larger ships that weren't capable of passing up the canal.

Warehouses were built alongside the new dock for the main purpose of storage, however many have since been replaced by more modern facilities.

The concrete silo in particular had the capacity of approximately 10,000 tons and was built during the 1930s in order to store grain transported up the nearby River Severn.

It replaced a large warehouse and adjoining store after they were destroyed by a 'spectacular fire' in 1934.

There is also a lovely picture of the Fromebridge Mill in Whitminster.
