More about this scene
This is one of many fine examples of public amenity open space in Port Sunlight. Dell Bridge was built in 1894 to span what was once the upper reaches of Dell Creek, a former tidal creek that once divided the village in half. It was drained and landscaped and now forms a lovely green ribbon through Port Sunlight.

The other game was to walk around the ledges and then jump off. You could break ...see more
