A recent trip to have another look at Merseyside Tramway Preservation Society’s Birkenhead Taylor Street HQ brought this bridge into view whilst riding on a preserved/rebuilt Wallasey tram.

The bridge is of the bascule type that was placed at various locations around Birkenhead Docks and it is impressive. The wikipedia page below has some information about it:-

Tony,
This new blog is all over the place, I can’t find the piece you had yesterday on cutting tax I want to show it to a colleague.
Can you repost it please.
Sorry Dave I don’t know where it has gone and it was put there by the Party not by me. They do on occasion put items on Lib Dem blogs.
