'Snowdrop' one of the famous Mersey Ferries, makes her way south east along the River Mersey, passing the ship repair yards at Birkenhead. A car ferry operated by Irish Ferries is currently undergoing repair work. On the right is St Mary's Tower, part of Birkenhead Priory.

See all Birkenhead photos.

It's great to see ships still being worked on in Birkenhead, though sadly they are no longer built there.
