Established in 2005 and updated regular with photographs of shipping on the River Mersey
and the Manchester Ship Canal
Although focusing mainly on Mersey Shipping, I will include photographs from other ports when visiting
Ships IMO number, tonnage ,year of build etc are shown underneath each picture.
There are over 3,380 photographs of Mersey Ships
and beyond as of January 2010.
Included are a few pictures from Southampton, Gt Yarmouth,Poole and Birkenhead taken in the 1950's/60s which are either prints or negatives which I have scanned ,not the best of quality, but I thought they may be of interest,
