Chapter 16 – Into Liverpool


On our way to Litherland




It has to be said that this was a very long way from being the most attractive
place to moor, but we were really glad to be there.





...the last, short stretch to Stanley Locks







We arrived at Stanley Top Lock half an hour early



This gave us time to wander around theite.


Down the four Stanley Locks





Into Stanley Dock, Brutus Maximus ahead of us


Then Collingwood Dock... Head towards the Victoria Tower


and enter into Salisbury Dock


Towards the end, turn left into Trafalgar Dock Passage



To our left, we get the best view yet of the Stanley Dock Tobacco Warehouse


On through the Central Docks Channel


and into West Waterloo Dock


Prince's Half Tide Dock


and Prince's Dock


At Prince's Dock Lock we could hear loud but distant screams


Now some tunnels



the second one of which deposits us at Mann Island Lock.


Out of the lock, we enter the South Docks



On we go, through the grand Albert Dock


and finally into Salthouse Dock




Jellyfish of all sizes waft their way around the berths
