Albert Dock

Albert Dock


Liverpool, United Kingdom (GB)
The Albert Dock is a complex of dock buildings and warehouses in Liverpool.

Designed by Jesse Hartley and Philip Hardwick, it was opened in 1846, and was the first structure in Britain to built from cast iron, brick and stone, with no structural wood. As a result it was the first non-combustible warehouse system in the world.
