Liverpool, Custom House 1887

More about this scene
Built in the late 1820s, the building we see here was Liverpool's fifth Customs & Excise collection building. Collecting tolls and excise duty was an important business, which demanded an important building. The Mersey Docks & Harbour Company also had their offices in the building at the time of our photograph. This was one of the buildings destroyed in the blitz of the Second World War, and had to be cleared away. Where this lovely building once stood is now an open space called Canning Place.
