Abstract: |
The report describes the results of a watching brief conducted during construction of a new footbridge at the former Duke's Dock site on Liverpool's waterfront. Duke's Dock was constructed in the late 18th century as Liverpool's trade expanded and forms part of Liverpool's historic waterfront. The dock was heavily modified in the early 20th century and partly filled in during the late 20th century and extensive remains were not expected to survive. The dock walls are listed buildings. The watching brief found layers of sands and gravels probably deposited during the construction of Duke's Dock. On the south side of the dock a wall, probably the remains of brick warehouse buildings constructed in the 19th century, was also found. |
