Work on a new 180-seater restaurant at the harbour is due to set sail at the beginning of next month.

‘The Shipyard’ is will be opening next spring, providing dining facilities for locals and ferry passengers passing through the terminal.

The restaurant will include a large indoor play area and a dedicated stage to create a venue for evening entertainment and live music.
