Liverpool Port and its Maritime Heritage
Ken Pye, Managing Director of Discover Liverpool, gives an illustrated talk on its maritime heritage ; a fascinating selection of maritime facts and fantasies. You will hear and be entertained by glorious stories of Sea Shanties; Maggie May and Liverpool’s ‘sailors’ comforters’; Lord Nelson’s Coffin and ‘the boy who stood on the burning deck’; a Life on the Ocean Wave; the Scouser who announced the Armada; privateers and the Carnatic and Mentor; and the Sea Monster and the Ghost Ship.
