Dan - the photograph of the carter on Hornby Dock would seem to be my Grandad. I was blown away to see this shot as I only have one picture of him. He died in 1976.

Any idea what year that would have been? And the source of the image please?

Many thanks for posting - I live in Kuala Lumpur and has not expected my Pop to appear right in front of me.

Liverpool certainly has changed since i worked on the docks there was oranges floating in the Albert dock area and dockers with dockers hooks looks dead posh today very nice expat davey

[Dan]

Don't allow dockers' hooks in the Albert Dock now, Davey.

If you do get there, best wear a top hat and tails. Oh, and a monocle, just to be on the safe side.

Could I get the photos printed off, Dan, or do you think it would infringe copyright?

[Silver-Haired-Hippy]

Hard to believe they let the Liver Buildings get that bad, I can only think that the cash was not available to do anything about it. Pleased it is great nowdays! Thanks Dan for all your photos etc.

These are old postcards I saw on pinterest. I cite the source if there's anything specific.

Should be OK , provided you're not going to sell them on your stall at Greatie.
