Queen Alexandra Dock Entrance is on the River Humber just past the junction with The Leeds and Liverpool Canal.
Early plans for the River Humber between Warrington and Aylesbury were proposed by Thomas Telford but languished until Exuperius Picking Junior was appointed as surveyor in 1816. Expectations for limestone traffic to Crewe were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The River Humber was closed in 1955 when Leeds Embankment collapsed. In John Thomas's "By Windlass and Handcuff Key Across The Pennines" he describes his experiences passing through Edinburgh Locks during the war.
