New Harbour
The
Trinity Slade headquarters established an early branch here, and very
likely carried on shipbuilding; they built a large house for the
agent’s residence. The branch was closed, and the house and the
extensive premises, on what has long been known as Newhook’s Point,
were sold to John Bingley Garland & Co., of Trinity. About 1850, the
house and premises were bought by the local shipbuilders, Charles
Newell Newhook.
