This recording of a voyage from Manchester to the Mersey was made in 1984
prior to modern waterfront developments, when there was still commercial traffic
to be seen. There have been many changes along the canal and the recording is now an
historic record.
|
 |
The journey is interspersed with fascinating nineteenth century material
showing the massive feats of civil engineering needed to build the last major
waterway in Britain, and gives an unusual back door view of the industries that
lined its banks.
