Chester Basin

[2] The basin was used by canal boats which had entered the river at Ellesmere Port, as well as other small craft on the Mersey,[2] and was owned by the Shropshire Union Railways and Canal Company.

[3] The basin was filled in between 1928 and 1936, with some of the spoil excavated during the construction of the Queensway Tunnel.

[2] In 2007, during the construction of the Liverpool Canal Link, the site was excavated.

The excavation revealed various carved stones, which were identified as being from the Liverpool Town Hall of 1673.
