We have the same here in Spital every day about the same time !, it comes from the "Lever soap factory" now Unilever in Port Sunlight !.
Yes!! Finally someone has the answer to this long-running yoliverpool mystery. I'm pretty sure it must be from Eastham. From Aigburth Vale it definately appears to be coming from the direction of the river. Now, who's going to find out why it is sounded every morning?....
....and has it's accuracy reduced over the years? I remember it during the 80's sounding around 9am!

I must confess I've not really thought much about Eastham until today. First of all a house of commons debate about it on my theyworkforyou alerts and now this.
The siren!

At last! Well found Devo by the way.Yes it is the siren at QEII dock, it is tested daily as part of our
emergency procedures and is linked to an emergency call centre.
Nice work Devo! Finally some evidence.
I could never believe that the sound would travel that far across the water. Then I mentioned it to my work colleague who lives in Ellesmere Port and she said that she could hear it too. I had a hunch that it was to do with the ship canal...
According to my mum, it also sounds every New Years Eve at midnight.
She's gutted that for the last few decades she has believed that it has sounded in Garston, havent we all eh?!

And so this thread rumbles on LOL
Well if its coming from the Docks its not where Gorgous has been told it is.Guess what ?
I think we've managed with some help from Yvonne & Neil to locate the mystery of the siren , they're 99% certain of the location .( Hello & welcome to you both if your looking in )
Do you all want to carry on guessing ? or putting out of your misery ?
It's not from over the water
Luv Karen xx
Now Gorgous will have to come and stirr it up especially as it was her investigative work.
I'm not starting a Nark,
Do you worship at ANFIELD or Goodiston park?
Sound
When I stayed at Cressington I never heard it.
Oh as I was young and easy in the mercy of his means,
Time held me green and dying
Though I sang in my chains like the sea.

Really I could not hear anything there... Weird siren, Hmmm maybe it comes from Heaven, no Neverland ...When I stayed at Cressington I never heard it.
I'm from Woolton, and I've also heard it also, but not recently !!!
