No, completely covered now, but we will always know exactly where it is, by reference to the manhole cover you can see in the second set of pictures, taken by Wheels.

its an absolute disgrace the way our history is covered over and witheld from us just because the government/council cannot be bothered... for the sake of a little investment or even a lottery grant, these historic tunnels could have become a hugely popular tourist attraction..

No, these are the Tranmere Air Raid Shelters, separate from the Cammell Laird tunnels

I watched the preparations. There is NO WAY through that. Also, there's never been any suggestion that these were called the Laird's tunnels; that's just an error by the author of the Echo article. Also, There's never been any suggestion that there was an entry to the tunnels from Laird's; they would have walked up Green Lane.
Carpe diem.
