Tunnel under the entrance to James Watt Dock which previously allowed access to both sides of the dock entrance without a tedious journey around the dock for operators of the lifting bridge which spanned the entrance.

Similar structure on north side survives although the pitched glass roof has been replaced with a flat roofing felt roof.

Alternative Names: None recorded.
