The city of Liverpool began as a tidal pool next to the Mersey. It was probably called "lifer pol" meaning muddy pool. It is not recorded in the Domesday Book (1086) but it may have been to inconsequential in size to deserve a mention of its own. King John founded the port of Liverpool in 1207. In 1515 a grammar school was founded in Liverpool. The first dock was built in 1715. From about 1730 the merchants of Liverpool made huge profits from the slave trade. In the 18th century sugar refining and shipbuilding became important industries in Liverpool. Rope making also flourished. Liverpool officially became a city in 1880. By 1901 the population of Liverpool had reached 685,000. In 1904 the boundaries of the city were extended again to include Fazakerly. Today the population of Liverpool is over 435,000. |
