The in nor harbour, which extends from Groennieadows to Bay View, a distance of over'six miles long by four miles wide, ; - which must not be confused with part of that, area which is called the ; inner harbour scheme, has been so raised that it is possible to walk from end to end without encountering sufficient water to stop progress. Before tho shake this area ranged from a few inches of water at the ends-to 16 feet deep in places in. the centre. It is feared, that boating and bathing facilities have ceased for ever, but in return it will soon be possible to add the whole area to the map as land and not'water.> '" ) .
