An historic former gate watch house based within the Albert Dock is earmarked for vital maintenance.
Liverpool’s most famous dock has morphed from its original trading origins into a hotspot of entertainment, dining and culture. Within its historic walls however, remain unique features members of the public may not even realise are there.
Among them are a former gate watch house, turned pumping station, which has fallen into disrepair. The 19th century single storey building has since been repurposed by United Utilities to become a pumping station for the River Mersey.
