In 2003, the Heritage Lottery Fund provided a grant of £873,000 for restoration of the harbour, historic buildings and lock gates at Lydney Docks. The project was completed in 2004 at a cost of £1.9 million. Further plans for the site include a marina development, with mooring facilities for around 50 boats; associated commercial operations such as a chandlery and workshop facilities; increased public access (foot and cycle paths) and facilities, including an observation tower to provide an educational facility. Flood defences in the dock area have also been upgraded, with a new combined flood and lock gate replacing the existing collapsed gate at the tidal lock entrance.
