That's from a steel engraving dated in the 1860's, there is one on ebay at the moment. Elsewhere it is dated c1840

EBAY

The picture is taken from the book "The Ports, Harbours, Watering-Places, and Coast Scenery of Great Britain" by W H Bartlett which can be viewed HERE

The picture was drawn by W H Bartlett and engraved by W Mossman

Thanks for the book gen. I have some of the prints and the pdf version has given me the description text. The book was published in 1842.
Other local views are of North Wales bridges, castles and harbours and on Merseyside the Canning Dock, St. Nicholas' Church, the Mersey and, of course, the New Brighton one.
The book is actually available as a smaller-sized reprint but the larger 2 volume original is on Abe for anything between £184 and £611, depending on condition.
