    Has anyone got an idea when this shot could have been taken, it is between the Wars,that is for sure. Does the picture offer up any clues? this is another stolen from the Pictorial Knowledge,

    Deprived of its unique dockland waters Liverpool
    becomes a Venice without canals, just another city, no
    longer of special interest to anyone, least of all the
    tourist. Would we visit a modernised Venice of filled in
    canals to view its modern museum describing
    how it once was?

    Used to work here as a profile burner, next door to the A1 at Lloyds. Took this picture in 2007 but was there today and its still standing, does anyone know what its used for now?

    Also does anyone know what happened to the Landfall opposite? Used to have our Xmas nights out there

    Circa 1970. The Atlantic Tower Hotel is being started. Canning Place is there - built late 60s/early 1970s.

    Kings Dock looks busy enough and they closed it down a year later. The Irish ro-ro ferry is at the car berth in Princes Dock.

    Yes the cranes for the Atlantic Tower and RSA (Sandcastle) building are in situ. Lancelot's Hey was a street lost during these constructions. There's pics of that street plus the construction of the sandcastle on my site.
