Completed in 1904, it is one of Georgetown's most loyal servants through a century of advancements and adversities. It has a berth of 600 square feet, with room for a "large liner or two ordinary steamers" and continues to be patronised by international passenger cruise vessels. Nearby the Edwardian-styled godowns were accomplices and testimony to the pier's once prosperous enterprise of transshipment trade, but also as backdrop for Anna and the King, playing the convincing part of a 19th-century Siamese port.
