Other works : -

The Amsterdam Ship Canal ; the Foundations of the Spithead Forts ; the Middle Level, the River Witham, and the Thames Valley Drainages ; and the drainage of Brighton.

The principal work he is now carrying out, in conjunction with his present partner, Mr. J. C. Hawkshaw, is the large system of docks at Buenos Ayres, with a dredged channel fourteen miles long, the works occupying a rive frontage of three miles, involving an expenditure of about £5,000,000 ; this being the largest dock system that has ever been carried out at one time.

Besides the above works he has acted as arbitrator in many cases ; has had to report on, and prepare designs for, many undertakings ; and is a frequent witness before Parliamentary and other tribunals. He is the author of an account of Holyhead Harbour, and of the amsterdam Ship Canal, presented to the Institution of Civil Engineers , and published in their Minutes of Proceedings.

'Mr. Harrison Hayter, the third partner in the firm of Hawkshaw,Son, and Hayter, arranged all the details of the contract when it was first entered into ; and during Mr. Clarke Hawkshaw's absence in South America from the beginning of September, 1885, to the end of January, 1886, Mr. Hayter had, at a very difficult time, to enter upon the charge of the works, and to work out the details of new pumping machinery and steam-power to be provided to pump the Great Spring.'
