The Liverpool blitz was the period when German aircraft bombed Liverpool extensively during WW2. The worst period was between August 1940 and May 1941. The raids were the most heavy outside London. The targets were primarily the docks and the transport infrastructure supporting them. Liverpool and Birkenhead comprised the largest port complex on the west coast.
