A fine working example of a Birkenhead Bascule Bridge. It housed models and information about the Birkenhead Dock system which opened in 1847. Climb the iron stairway for a bird's eye view over Dockland and beyond and enjoy the audio-visual presentation, where the ghost of John Laird meets that of an 'ordinary' working man.
