Building of Barrow Docks 1860-80 (Barrow-in-Furness)
A Triumph of Engineering
About
Maps never made public before, hidden details from Sankey photos, and background stories of the town’s biggest ever construction project. The result of years of back-breaking work by thousands, the docks were 'a triumph of engineering’ that would put Barrow on the world map.
