Manchester Ship Canal Part 2 DVD - Description
In 1955 Mike Lord mounted his bicycle and pedalled from Bolton to see the Manchester Ship Canal. Fortunately he took his cine-camera and tape recorder with him. The results of his visits from 1955 to 1964 are pure magic. With over 120 ships on view, coal fired tugs, a ‘Liberty Ship’, Austin Healeys and double deck buses for export, these videos show how busy the Canal was 41 years ago.
