For the purposes of the Company the position of the
premises is not to be surpassed (as will be seen by theplan)
they are in close proximity to Sutton Harbour, forming
the seaboard of Catwater anchorage, and are completely
sheltered, first by the Plymouth Breakwater, and next
by the peninsula of Mount Batten, in addition to which.
the approaches to the premises are completely com-
manded by the guns of the citadel. The Branch Station
of the South Devon Railway Company is situated in the
mediate vicinity, and her Majesty's Dockyard, Devon-
Port, is within an easy distance.
This Company will offer unusual facilities for carrying

ow, added to which much expense will be saved, as the
materials will be delivered on the quays of the Company
free of all dues and char es

boundit to shipowners in consequence of vessels outward
