I built this port layout in 2017 and I have taken it to many LEGO events here in Hungary to put on display. While it is a massive build and individual elements look really nice, I always felt it is lacking something, it felt too static and empty in a sense. So I decided to take apart, now that I finally have good quality photos, and I'm going to aim to build a better, more interesting port in the future.
The North Carr Lightship seems to have found its last resting place here in Victoria Dock, Dundee.
I recall visiting this ship many years ago when it was moored in (I think) Anstruther in the East Neuk of Fife. At that time it was a tourist attraction and was worth a visit. Sadly it is little more than a rusting wreck now.

Finally made time to take a wee excursion to Preston. Got a thing for harbours and moored boats so can't understand why I haven't made more of an effort earlier.
The Albert Dock is a complex of dock buildings and warehouses in Liverpool, England. Designed by Jesse Hartley and Philip Hardwick, it was opened in 1846, and was the first structure in Britain to built from cast iron, brick and stone, with no structural wood. As a result it was the first non-combustible warehouse system in the world.Today the Albert Dock is a major tourist attraction in the city and is a vital component of the UNESCO World Heritage Maritime Mercantile City. The docking complex and warehouses also comprise the largest single collection of Grade I listed buildings anywhere in the UK.
