Port Sunlight Heritage Centre and Lady Lever Art Gallery

 
Port Sunlight is of interest for the part it played in the history of British industrial development. The Lever brothers had made a considerable fortune from soap and founded a model town for their workers on the estuary of the Mersey in 1888, similar to that of Cadbury near Birmingham. They built better schools and training centers. The Lady Lever Art Gallery has an excellent collection of Art Nouveau, 18th C furniture and Wedgewood porcelain, together with works by Turner and other English painters.
