I was fascinated to read your contribution and to see the photographs and maps, especially those that show the salt house. Can you tell me, please, whether there are any sources of information on people who worked as salt officers in Liverpool docks? I am researching a William Stephenson who was a salt officer c 1766, and would love to find out more about what his work involved.

Thanks for posting all this interesting information. I do hope more is done by the authorities to preserve Liverpool's past.
