The Mersey has changed over the past century. Famous ships and shipping lines have changed or gone alrogether, the means of shipping goods has changed and the numbers of people in the docks have drastically fallen. Household names such as Blue Funnel Line, Rlder Dempster and Pacific Steam Navigation company have been replaced by Fred Olsen, HAPAG-Lloyd and Maersk, while Cunard ships pnce more call into the Mersey, no longer carrying passengers heading for America or Canada, but holidaymarkers in floating hotels. This fascinating selection of photographs traces some of the many ways in which Mersey Shipping has changed and development over the last century.
