The foundry was part of Harland & Wolff marine refit and repair shop located on Strand Road, Bootle. Located close to the then entrance to the Alexandra Dock on Regent Road (known locally as the 'Dock Road') The repair shop and foundry no longer exist. The original entrance gate to the Alexandra Dock has long gone. This section of the Dock Road was closed off to the public, the route of the road refigured, and a new entrance to this part of the North Liverpool dock system, which is now called 'The Liverpool Freeport'. Another part of old Liverpool gone for ever! For another view see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1443502.
