TALLEST BUILDINGS IN THE WIRRAL
Mersey tunnel ventilation tower 1 Each side of the River Mersey has a triumvirate of ventilation stations with exhaust towers, this one standing 150 feet tall, this imposing structure is the Woodside Ventilation Station in Birkenhead, one of six such installations serving the Queensway Mersey Tunnel. These buildings are the work of Herbert James Rowse. The ventilation system for the Tunnel is fairly straightforward but on an immense scale. When catering for dense traffic the rate of air movement is in the order of 2.5 million cubic feet per minute (about 1300 cubic metres per second). There are four ventilation stations for the main tunnel and one for each dock branch. The Birkenhead Dock Branch was closed soon after the opening of the Wallasey Tunnel and the Taylor Street Ventilation Station has been mothballed ever since. The under river section of the tunnel is served by the Woodside Tower from Birkenhead and the Georges Dock Building from Liverpool. The land-based sections are served by the Sydney Street ventilation station in Birkenhead and the North John Street ventilation station in Liverpool. - Transverse System. Fresh air is delivered from each ventilation station to the space underneath the roadway and the air is extracted from the roof of the Tunnel into the same ventilation station. For the roadway beneath the river the fresh air is delivered to the midpoint from Woodside Tower on the Birkenhead side and from Georges Dock Building on the Liverpool side, although there is no bulkhead under the roadway to stop the two airstreams mixing. The air is delivered along the quadrants formed by the roadway supports through apparently continuous slots in the edge of the maintenance walkways. However, baffles below these slots are spaced such that more air is supplied upwards the greater the distance from the ventilation station. /Users/OwenChristian/Desktop/Picture clipping.pictClipping
Cammel Lairds construction hall 2
Not only is this one of the tallest buildings in the wirral it is also the biggest indoor area in the whole of the u.k. standing at 164ft and 500m wide . The modular construction hall is one of the largest and best of its kind in Europe. Cammell Laird continues to invest heavily in its infrastructure ensuring the hall is fit for purpose for the demands of modern engineering. In recent years the hall has seen a number of major fabrication projects including building the flight decks for the new QUEEN ELIZABETH class aircraft carrier. In total this saw more than 5000 tonnes of complex steel structure fabrication undertaken in three years. The hall is situated adjacent to the ship repair facilities. Structures and vessels can be loaded out from the hall to our heavy load out quays situated on a non tidal wet basin. It further features direct river access via a slipway launch and vehicular access for large module transportation to the dry docks.
new Brighton 3-4 This 176ft amazing building is not by its own in fact it has a twin 25mt away opposite from it. Starting and finishing in 2008-2010 it’s a very attractive building with a very attractive view. this tower is located in new Brighton, and in new Brighton once stood the tallest buildings in the whole of the u.k. the name of this 186m skyscraper is "New Brighton Tower" this was one of the greatest land marks in the wirrals history.The New Brighton Tower was patterned on the world-famous Eiffel Tower in Paris. It all started when a newly formed company called The New Brighton Tower and Recreation Company Limited, with a share capital of £300,000 decided to purchase the Rock Point Estate of over 20 acres. The Tower was to be 544 feet high, with Assembly Hall, Winter Gardens, Refreshment Rooms and layout with a cycle track. The Tower was to be more elegant than Blackpool's. Shares were £1 each and the Tower would be made of mild steel.
Kingsway tunnel vents The Kingsway vents are superficially utilitarian in the clarity of their parts – the air intakes look like intakes, and the chimney looks like a chimney. As so often with the concrete architecture of the 1960s and ’70s, however, this apparently inarticulate simplicity only thinly cloaks a considerable artistic forcefulness. For a start there is an exaggerated quality to the clarity of these vents. The paired vents and bifurcating chimney flues, for example, advertise the presence below of two parallel tunnels. More, the forms themselves are heightened: the chimney swelling cartoonishly as it rises, stiffened by space-rocket-like fins and flanked by the faintly biomorphic air intakes, make these tunnel vents amongst the most immediately recognisable monuments of Liverpool, a city with no shortage of recognisable monuments. The shapes of the vents speak so persuasively of technology, of a particular vision of progress and the future, that they have frequently been compared either to space craft or to a high-design 1960s sound system.this 129ft building is the 5th tallest building in the wirral.
