Description

Princes Dock Wall is a dockyard wall built in 1821. It is constructed of English bond brick with sandstone copings and stands approximately 18 feet high. The wall extends for about 210 meters and forms the southern half of the landward boundary to Princes Dock, which is the first closed dock in Liverpool. It was built under the direction of John Foster, who was Hartley's predecessor, to provide a secure boundary against the theft of goods brought into the port. The wall is connected to a Greek Revival gateway and another brick wall that complete the northern boundary.
