The digging on the ground between Myton 
Gate and the River Humber, at the town of 
Kingifton upon Hull, is partially commenced. 
‘The length of the Dock, to be called the 
Humber Dock, will be aiout 900 feet, and 
its breadth 342. It will occupy about feven 
acres of ground, and is calculated to contain 
Yeventy jail of thips. The leck is to be fo con- 
ftructed as to be capable of admitting a fifty- 
gun fhip of war, from the bafon into the 
dock. Vhe bafon is intended to encompafs 
about t*vo acres of ground, and will be carried 
fo far into the Humber, that veffels of large 
burden may enter it with fafety at low water. 
On the eatt fide of the dock, a quay is to be 
formed, feventy feet broad, and another on 
the weft fide, forty feet broad, which latter 
will adjoin a new intended case to be forty 
feet wide, to extend from Myton Gate to 
the Humber. The facility which thefe ar- 
yangements, when carried into execution, 
will give tothe mercantile intereft, and the 
fhipping bufinefs, muft undoubtedly contri- 
bute greatly to enhance very confiderably the 
importance of Hull, as acommercial fea-port.
