When it opened, the tunnel was fitted with co-ordinated and decorated fittings. Many are now gone, but these lights, embedded in the retaining walls just outside the tunnel mouth, remain. They have the initials "MT" at the top - for Mersey Tunnel - and other letters below which are now unclear. Possibly they spell "CLC" for City of Liverpool Council. It seems that these lights are still in use.
