A boater's view. The Kelloggs factory used to receive all its Canadian wheat at this basin via the Atlantic, the Manchester Ship Canal and the Bridgewater Canal. The original link between the two canals was at Hulme Image and after 1995 at Pomona Image When trans-Atlantic ships became too big to use the Manchester Ship Canal, Kelloggs opened a wheat depot in the Liverpool docks, and this basin became redundant.
