'The River Mersey' in Old Hall Street

This large piece of carved Portland Stone seems to be called 'The River Mersey' and it once stood on top of the old Cotton Exchange in Old Hall Street. Other statues from the old building stand at various places around the current Cotton Exchange. Sadly this historic statue looks as though it has just been dumped there waiting for someone to take it away.
