The Rubber Duck public house in Strand Road, Bootle in the vicinity of Liverpool Docks.


The Rubber Duck public house in Strand Road, Bootle in the vicinity of Liverpool Docks. As the dock trade declined with the transfer of the dock trade to the nearby container terminal at Seaforth, the docks and surrounding area of warehousing and service industries also declined. many of the public houses closed. Situated next to Harland & Wolff building which would have provided much of its customer base at the height of the dock trade, H&W foundry is now a secure storage business and will operate with a fraction of the staff employed by H&W in their heyday.
