The commerceof the port had, however, increased so considerably towards the close of the last cen- tury, that the accommodation offered on the river for shipping was found to be quite inadequate, and about this time the Irish Parliament granted ^^15, 000 for constructing docks on both sides of the Liffey.
The Floating and Graving Docks communicating with the Grand Canal on the south side, including a basin covering forty statute acres, and a quay and store frontage of 7, 500 feet, were opened i...n 1796 ; and St. George's, the latest of the Custom House Docks, in 1821. A Parliamentary Report issued in 1805, says : — " One of the great obstacles to the present trade of the city of Dublin is that there being a bank of sand stretched across the mouth of the River Liffey (which bank it would be impossible, or even if possible useless to attempt to remove, because another bar would immediately form itself) it compels the trade to be carried on in small vessels of 150 to 200 tons in general, instead of those large vessels used at London, Bristol, and Liverpool, to the very great increase of expense to the trade, and at times causing great difficulty of getting vessels to charter fit for the harbour in order to carry on the trade.
