Location: Liverpool Waters

Les Ellis, Trustee of The Docklands Trail reflects with Peel Waters on how the Trail and exhibition at Liverpool Waters was founded.

Showcasing the heritage of Liverpool’s northern docks as well as its exciting future, the charity regularly hosts local schools, community groups and tourists, teaching them about the history of the docks, the land and the people who used to work there.

In this reflection, hear directly from Les about the exhibition within Collingwood Dock at Liverpool Waters and how you can get involved. If you would like to visit The Docklands Trail, it is open on Wednesdays and Sundays 10am – 1pm.
