Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological work was required in advance of the potential construction of a retail development at Mann Island, and the cutting of a canal link, creating 1.4 miles of new navigable waterway along the banks of the River Mersey. The development forms a significant part of the Central Docks, stretching between the north/south dock divide at Pier Head and the Stanley Dock lock flight. The site lies within the Maritime Merchantile City of Liverpool World Heritage Site and is also classed as a conservation zone. It includes the sites of eighteenth-century sea walls, Princes Dock, Princes Half-Tide Dock, West Waterloo Dock, Victoria Dock and Trafalgar Dock. |
