Shipping Safety Within the Port of Liverpool Adrian Jarvis
Safe Home in Port? Shipping Safety within the Port of Liverpool Adrian Jarvis Introduction: Sources and Methods The issue of safety at sea has long exercised the minds of those who were concerned by what they perceived as irresponsible shipowners who sent their men to sea in dangerous vessels or with dangerous cargoes. Samuel Plimsoll is just the most famous among many who sought to bring to the shipping industry the sort of controls which already existed in many shore-based industries, and a number of Parliamentary enquiries investigated these questions in the nineteenth century.' Maritime historians have taken a good deal of interest in the answers, at both scholarly and more popular levels. Further down the scale comes the literature of spectacular shipwrecks, the worst examples of which are not merely voyeuristic or ghoulish but positively necrophiliac. What author of third-rate novels could improve on the real-life storyline of the Titanic? It raised issues of class and gender, of social, financial and technological hubris, and of heroism and neglect.' The common perception is that such tragic events invariably unfolded either in mid- ocean or on storm-battered rocky shores and in terms of bulk fatalities that perception is obviously correct. Its corollary, that one is safe in po rt, is not merely widely accepted but has extended to the use of the po rt as a metaphor for Heaven, with Jesus as celestial pilot and the Holy Trinity as the po rt authority.' This paper makes a rapid survey of the records of the Mersey Docks & Harbour Board (MD&HB), which shows that there obviously were accidents to ships when they were supposedly safe in po rt, that such accidents were numerous and that some of them were serious. -

Maritime and Naval Buildings Listing Selection Guide Summary
Maritime and Naval Buildings Listing Selection Guide Summary Historic England’s twenty listing selection guides help to define which historic buildings are likely to meet the relevant tests for national designation and be included on the National Heritage List for England. Listing has been in place since 1947 and operates under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. If a building is felt to meet the necessary standards, it is added to the List. This decision is taken by the Government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). These selection guides were originally produced by English Heritage in 2011: slightly revised versions are now being published by its successor body, Historic England. The DCMS‘ Principles of Selection for Listing Buildings set out the over-arching criteria of special architectural or historic interest required for listing and the guides provide more detail of relevant considerations for determining such interest for particular building types. See https:// www.gov.uk/government/publications/principles-of-selection-for-listing-buildings. Each guide falls into two halves. The first defines the types of structures included in it, before going on to give a brisk overview of their characteristics and how these developed through time, with notice of the main architects and representative examples of buildings. The second half of the guide sets out the particular tests in terms of its architectural or historic interest a building has to meet if it is to be listed. A select bibliography gives suggestions for further reading. England has the longest coastline in relation to its land mass in Europe: nowhere is very far from the sea.
