Coburg Dock
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coburg Dock is a dock, on the River Mersey and part of the Port of Liverpool. It is situated in the southern dock system, connected to Queens Dock to the north, Brunswick Dock to the south.
The dock was opened in 1840 and provided direct river access. This passage fell into disuse and was subsequently sealed up.
In 1986, the large grain silo near the dock basin was demolished.[1]
This and the other docks in the southern system are owned by British Waterways. Part of the dock is set aside for moorings.
