Sutton Harbour Company plan to develop harbour facilities to improve landing and berthage of vessels and to create a modern service structure essential to the requirements of both local and visiting vessels and to primary processing and marketing of fish and shellfish. Existing facilities are inadequate, unreliable, antiquated, unhygienic and poorly sited. In essence the plan is to relocate the fish market, merchanting and service related activities to the eastern side of the harbour where better access and greater availability of space will allow for sensible development to the benefit of all sectors of the fish industry. Detail of existing port services, the local fleet, fish landings and resource opportunities is provided in Sea Fish Industry Authority Technical Report Number 320, September 1987. This report has been produced from a scanned original and may therefore contain some formatting and other inaccuracies. In cases where this affects the technical content, a paper copy of the original report can still be obtained from Seafish.
