Ncbjor LEAXDROCUBILLO. (Paper No. 2433.) Recent Dock Extensions at Liverpool, with a General Description of the MerseyDock Estate,the Port of Liverpool,and the RiverMersey.” By GEORGEFOSBERY LYSTER, M. Inst. C.E. THEspecial characteristics of theRiver Mersey, theimportant positionwhich Liverpool occupies among theleading trading centres of the world, and the rapid development of its commerce are, each and all, so interesting to engineers, that in submitting a Paper descriptive of the most recent dock extensions carried out in the port, the Author has been induced to touch upon each of these points, as a fitting preamble to the more formal and precise description of the special works which form the leading features of the Paper. Few, if any, localities, inthis country at all events, are so favourably situatedfor the construction of a comprehensive system of docks as that of Liverpool, not onlyby reason of its geographical position on the seaboard of the country, with its unrivalled water frontage, but also on account of its proximity to the great manu- faeturing districts, as well as to the coal and mineral fields of the North of England and Wales, with which it is linked by railways and canals, which aresuch important factors in thedevelopment and maintenance of successful trading. -

Journal of the Chester Archaeological Society Volume 85 for 2015, pages 39‐82 IV: The Industrial Archaeology of Cheshire An Overview by Michael Nevell [final peer‐reviewed text] Study of the industrial period in Cheshire (1750–1900) has been patchy. This thematic overview attempts to redress the balance and especially to highlight the contribution made over the last quarter‐century by archaeological fieldwork. Of set purpose it is descriptive rather than analytical. Nevertheless, it is set within the framework of recent developments in methodology and theory, and suggestions are made of possible future research themes. Introduction Cheshire contains some of the major saltworks and the earliest purpose‐built mecha ‐nised textile mills and industrial canals in Britain. Yet the physical remains of the Industrial Revolution within the county, beyond those of corn mills and the textile industry, have only been studied fitfully; the remains of many of its chief industries are poorly recorded; and their wider significance is often not fully appreciated. -
