Huskisson (1852-present)
Huskisson was built to deal in timber but lost this trade to Canada Dock. Changes made it ideal for the North America steamer trade. It was the site of the S. S. Malakand explosion during the Blitz (3rd May 1941) in World War II. 1000 tons of shells and explosives aboard the ship blew up.
