Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was conducted during the excavation of geotechnical test-pits at the Princes Half-Tide Basin, Princes Dock, Liverpool. The test-pits found that the deposits beneath the present ground surface consist primarily of make-up deposited during the construction of the basin in the 1820s and its subsequent remodelling in the 1860s. The most significant items recovered were fragments of sugar mould which can be dated to 1787-1820. Below these deposits were layers of silts and clays likely to represent the pre-dock foreshore. In addition to the below ground deposits a photographic record was made of the existing dock furniture consisting of bollards, idler wheels, fence posts, rail tracks and signalling gear. Most of this is to standard patterns found through-out the central docks area. The only exception was a single bollard which had been modified by the addition of a collar.
