The centrepiece of landscaping at the busy A5036/A565 (Princess Way/Crosby Road South) junction near the entrance to the Port of Liverpool Royal Seaforth Dock is a disused navigation buoy. The two metal triangles at the top of the buoy are the "topmark" and their shapes indicate that this was a West Cardinal Mark; meaning that ships should pass to the west of the buoy. It carries the letters G M on this side with the other side marked J C (see Image]).
