The Mersey Forge had all the site between the three gas holders. The open land between the lowered gas holder, bottom right, and the houses has been vacant for 110 years.
The in-filled Harrington and Toxteth Docks can be seen bottom left. The dock sheds are still intact
Brunswick station is in the foreground and the Northern Line can be seen entering the tunnel at Grafton St.
The Cheshire Lines Brunswick Goods terminal was where the roundabout is, left. between Park St and Northumberland St. The trains entered from the Northern Line and under Park St. The new bricks can be seen where the bridge has been filled in. The lines have been ripped up. The map below shows the good terminal, arrowed.
This is also the location of the southern Liverpool passenger terminal, from 1864 to 1874, when Central Station was built. The passenger building is below. It was together with the Brunswick Goods Terminal demolished in 1975.
