Iron Mooring Bollard with Long Bolts

3D Model

This undated mooring bollard was used to secure watercraft to a dock or pier. The large size and integrated triangular foundation suggest that it was used at the point of a tapered pier and its use was related to larger boats and barges (Photograph 4). The long iron bolts were used to secure it to the bulkhead (Photograph 5). The welded construction dates this bollard to the 20th century. These bollards can be associated with the later part of the canal’s commercial, industrial and transportation activities.
