What is under construction a the Cammel Lairds' site between their ship assembly building and the oil terminal?

I drove down Campbelltown Rd the other day and the whole site was alive with construction work?

The Tranmere spaceport perhaps?

Massive isn't it, and they knocked it up pretty quick. But a freeport without any airport, railway or quayside is an unusual situation.

Maybe the launch pads for rockets - when they are built - will reveal the plan.

Another bloody cheap and nasty tin shed is hardly an architectural asset to Birkenhead is it.
