Ray Smyth:
An Atkinson artic parked outside of Henry Diaper warehouse on The Strand (Dock Road) in Liverpool.
At the end of the Diaper building where the loaded rigid lorry is parked is the entrance & exit of the
Branch section of the Mersey Tunnel, and St Nicholas Church at the rear. Being so near the docks,
this church was known locally as “The Sailors Church”. I cant make out who the Atkinson belongs to,
It could be one of Bowkers, whose lorries were frequently seen at Liverpool Docks.

Much as I would like it to be a Bowker motor, I don’'t think it is - it looks like there is a logo on the door, but Bowker Atkis only ever had lettering on the doors.
Marvellous atmospheric picture though!!
