The image linked in my previous post is of the floating bridge linking the shore to the floating landing stage, at Princes’ Dock. The church in the background is Our Lady and St Nicholas. Here is a map view, if you move the slider (bottom left) you can see where it was in relation to modern Liverpool.

Kudos for another great share.
From the Liverpool Echo gallery you sent I went off down a rabbit hole! I have been digging around Stephen Shakeshift's work. What a gift of a job to have in those days - black and white photography and printed news papers to carry your work. Tight deadlines and analogue silver halide film.
This mapping overlay you have shared is another tool with which I had no familiarity. I've bookmarked it for future use
That floating bridge link must have increased the ability of the dock to work at various states of tide. Thinking of Liverpool Docks reminded me of a fire that became somewhat infamous in Fire Brigade marine firefighting training - the Empress of Canada. Anyway I digress!!
