The Cardiff Landing Stage is shown on a 1913 map of the docks on The Cut adjacent to Bathurst Basin. Packet boats operated regular services to Cardiff and Swansea from the Bathurst Basin until the 1930s. In the picture above from 2019 the remains of the piles can be seen as rotten stumps.

First Bedminster Bridge from 1807 - Reece Winstone — The first Bedminster Bridge (Harfords Bridge) was rammed by the Fanny Chapman in 1860 and badly damaged. It also proved not strong enough for horse drawn trams and was rebuilt in 1880/1882.
