I recently saw a demolition notice on a lampost in London Road...Nos 181-185. This is close to the Falkland Street junction, incase anyone hasn't snapped the buildings yet.

Dovedale Baptist Church, Mossley Hill. Until about 20 years ago, this church was known as Wavertree Baptist Church. This is a fascinating building. It's the only one I know in Liverpool which uses the flint rubble wall construction technique so common in East Anglia.

Hailstorm from earlier this week. Looking towards Princes Gate East.

This style is common in Bucks too.

It's wonderful to see these beautiful and interesting pictures of Liverpool. It brings back great memories of our visits to your city.

I hope so, this year has been a success I would say. In fact, yes, we will have a POD for 2008!

[scouse smurf]

The blue and white lights in the tree's on Victoria St would make a really good pic of the day. I just haven't got the ability to take it. lol

Afraid not, Lindy.
POTD's can't be posted in advance.
It's one of the few rules.

[lindylou]

oops, I should know better shouldn't I :o

That was just incase no one posts one for tomorrow I mean :unibrow:

I've run out of pics now.



Philip what do you think of that church , St Monicas in Bootle? Isn't it a stunning building. You like that period of architecture don't you?

I like it.

St Columbas in Anfield is rather nice too.

Chris, I don't think you understand the point of POTD.

[phredd]

Talking to some one a few weeks ago and he says there is a plan ?? to replace, and or repair them.
Not seen anything about them though.

[lindylou]

Kev, great idea to put Ken Dodd in the POTD. :handclap:


wouldn't you think they would repair those walks of fame.

[A.D.W]

wouldn't you think they would repair those walks of fame.

It would help if people didn't damage them in the first place, Lindy.

Lyceum

[PhilipG]

Lyceum

A shop has recently opened in the Lyceum, where the post office was.
It's worth going in to look at the original wall decorations.

[chippie]

Hi Philip, what kind of shop is it?

[PhilipG]

Hi Philip, what kind of shop is it?

Hard to say, really.
A bit like a trendy market, or an up-market Quiggins (like they're set up in Central Hall).
I stuck my head in, and somebody said "Can I help you?".
So I asked could I take photos of the wall carvings, and got a funny look, so I said I won't take any photos of the stalls, and didn't pay any attention to them.
See #24 in this thread.
