evening on the mersey at seacombe
The canal was filled in at its most extreme. Quite a bit of canal and a basin were filled in. The canal at one time nearly hit Princes Dock.
There was a plan to extend the canal from this location, along the Strand behind the Liver Buildings and into Canning Dock.
I think this may have been a better route rather than the current route in front of the Liver. Then the Princes, Princes half-Tide Docks could have been left deep water docks (not made shallow for) and deep water historic ships berthed in these docks.
A better idea was to have partially excavated the Old Dock (Steers Dock) - L1 is now on it. Have the Leeds/Liverpool canal enter the Old Dock and then onto the Canning Dock via the original Old Dock entrance. Then canal boats would have to enter the Old Dock using locks, surrounded by a shopping Centre. That would be much more atmospheric and re0-earthing history too, as the Old Dock was the world's first enclosed commercial dock.
Greg's dad, that picture of the ferries is particularly nice. Lovely colours :handclap:
Thanks Lindylou

Nice photo gregs dad. I'm cheating today and putting 2 photo's on but they were taken this morning at sunrise. I love dramatic skies so hope no-one minds. :)
Beautiful photographs Anita..
As the sailors saying goes: "Red skies in the morning, is a sailors warning".. Hope your weather is nice...:snf (41):
Nice pics Anita.
Lovely. I don't normally see sunrises, not a morning person by any stretch of the imagine.
Thanks everyone :)

I don`t take any sunrise pics because the missus won`t bring my breakfast up to me before 9 o`clock in the morning.
