Collingwood (1848)
Collingwood was the last dock built just for the coasting trade. After that coasters had to make do with docks abandoned by other trades. It was linked to the Leeds-Liverpool canal, bringing coal and processed cotton to the port for export. It was also the site of a hexagonal (six-sided) clock tower.
