Summary

[edit]
Description

View from the window at the International Slavery Museum, Albert Dock, Liverpool.

The Liverpool Waterfront. It has changed so much since the days of the transatlantic slave trade ended.

The three famous 20th century Pier Head buildings stand on the site of George's Dock where slave ships bound for Africa loaded their goods.

The two dry docks in front of the Great Western Railway building are Canning Graving Docks, built in the 18th century, Slave ships were repaired in these docks. They are a vivid reminder of the horrors of Liverpool's slave trading, and monuments to the commercial success of 18th century Liverpool.

Mann Island Buildings & Great Western Railway building.

The ship is Liverpool Pilot Cutter No 2.
