It is situated in the northern dock system in Vauxhall, connected to East Waterloo Dock and West Waterloo Dock to the north and Prince's Dock to the south. HistoryThe dock opened in 1810 and consisted of a lock entrance from the Mersey. This passage has since been closed off. The dock was rebuilt in 1868 by George Fosbery Lyster.[2] In 2007, work began on a £20 million extension of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, providing a further {{convert|1.4|mi|km|abbr=on}} of navigable waterway and encompassing Prince's Half-Tide Dock.[3] A new lock, and fixed bridge, was built at the entrance to the adjoining Prince's Dock.[4] The dock was partly filled in to reduce its depth.[5] FutureThe area surrounding Prince's Half-Tide Dock forms part of the proposed multi-billion pound Liverpool Waters development with a series of towers planned to be built around the dock.[6] Prince's Half-Tide Dock is the proposed location of the new £3.5 million Isle of Man ferry terminal, which will replace the existing facility at Pier Head, which is "nearing the end of its operational life" according to the report placed before Tynwald (the Isle of Man parliament). The proposals were discussed before Tynwald on 19 July 2016.[7] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/refresh/media/thumbnail/26435-2016-skippers-guide.pdf|title=Liverpool Canal Link Skipper's Guide 2016|work=Canal & River Trust|page=3|accessdate=4 September 2016}} 2. ^{{harvnb|Pollard|Pevsner|2006|p=278}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.britishwaterways.co.uk/liverpoolcanallink/scheme/index.php|title=Liverpool Canal Link: The Scheme|publisher=British Waterways|accessdate=6 April 2008|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080725110138/http://www.britishwaterways.co.uk/liverpoolcanallink/scheme/index.php|archivedate=25 July 2008}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.britishwaterways.co.uk/liverpoolcanallink/scheme/section3.php|archive-url=http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20080603115427/http://www.britishwaterways.co.uk/liverpoolcanallink/scheme/section3.php|dead-url=yes|archive-date=3 June 2008|title=Liverpool Canal Link: (Section 3) Princes Dock|publisher=British Waterways|accessdate=6 April 2008}} 5. ^{{citation|url=http://www.penninewaterways.co.uk/ll/liverpool-link02.htm |title=Leeds and Liverpool Canal - Liverpool Canal Link (Page 2) |publisher=Pennine Waterways |accessdate=6 April 2008 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20080720060454/http://www.penninewaterways.co.uk/ll/liverpool-link02.htm |archivedate=20 July 2008 |df= }} 6. ^{{cite web|last1=Houghton|first1=Alistair|title=What's actually happening at Liverpool Waters?|url=http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/whats-actually-happening-liverpool-waters-12381596|website=Liverpool Echo|accessdate=1 January 2017|date=1 January 2017}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-isle-of-man-36746613|title=Approval sought for £3.5m purchase of Liverpool ferry terminal|publisher=BBC News|accessdate=14 July 2016}} Sources
