Maritime Musuem from Princes Quay


A different view of the museum I mentioned a few days ago. This is Princes Quay, an old dock that is now a shopping mall. The dock used to lead  past the Dock Offices to another, larger, dock that has now been filled in. Where the lamppost is in the middle there used to be large monument to William Wilberforce. 
Princes Quay and the Dock offices were painted in the 19th century by John Atkinson Grimshaw.
