The function of the dock at Havre was mainly gross intake from overseas and output to regulating stations. The overseas intake included all trans- atlantic shipments of frozen meat, preserved meat, pork and beans (presumably in tins), oats, flour and oatmeal, cheese and milk. Any remaining shipments went to the home supply base at Newhaven. Some coals, oils and medicinal comforts were held in stock for local use.
