Forums Forums Wirral Information What's On Wirral Demolish Date - Birkenhead Cranes

I dunno where they went mate, Scott_f might know though, she is a retard imho

And I doubt anyone would get her on cam, unless they really wanted to break their lens.

This is wot happened to them 8 pages ere mate!!

I went to the cammel laird crane demolition that woz on sunday aswel but a bit later at 11:00 set all the car alarms off in rock ferry lol I've got a vid sumwer i'll try an find it!

"Just been reading that it was peel holdings who got rid of them. I thought the planning application had been refused. I'm sure it was peel holdings who brought down lairds cranes when Wirral borough council had said wait to see if they could get any ship building work in. Theres a bit of a re occurring thing happening with peel holdings, cranes and get rid for no reason..."

It wasn't planning that was refused recently, the eco-town next to Peel's Wirral Waters didn't get added to the governments shortlist for special eco-town grants. Stuff is happening with Wirral Waters, the Hydraulic Tower should hopefully get permisison soon (tomorrow I think) and lots of work is going on now to clear sites around the docks which will be put to use on short-term leases to bring some cash in whilst planning is sought (you can see this at the old Bidston Dock, the site between Four bridges and the grain warehouse and on the corner by Duke Street).

Hardly any think left now go an get the last pics before it's too late!!

them thar lairds cranes were on a telly program werent they?

Eventually you will see them on a Discovery Channel
all about demolition of steel structures.
