ports docks and harbours

This is a companion photograph to go with the view of the Pier Head landing stage that I sent a while back, of the Manx Maid, Empress of England? and the Reina del Mar.

I can only remember this happening once on the Mersey! I've forgotten the year now. 1960's? It was a thrilling experience crossing the river in this stuff, on one of the old Woodside steamers .... Claughton, or Thurstaston, can't remember!

Another view. A grain hopper?

This was seen many times around the Mersey. Was she a grain hopper?
