1905
This
view of Knott's Hole in
1905 looks across to "David's Throne" from the south side of
Dingle Point.
David's Throne was a name given by the Puritans
to the small sandstone outcrop which separates the two branches of the Dingle
Stream. It was once crowned by an alcove containing a statue of the 'Nymph of
the Dingle'.
This is now all buried under the former Garden
Festival site although tipping started in the early 1900s.
This was one of the first areas to be filled with spoil from
the Mersey Tunnel diggings, as part of the Dingle Oil Terminal
development.
