Very interesting. I knew about St. Katharine's Chapel in nearby Lydiate but was unaware of St Andrew's Chapel. Good work, gregs dad.

I found this website with a shot of the Maghull chapel and historical information:

Thanks Chris

Did you get his house on Station Road with the blue plaque GD. I think Lindy put a pic of it on the blue plaques thread a good while back.

Yes, it should be there somewhere. I often pass by that way. My dad lives in Maghull.

Be nice if we can get some more pics of the area into this thread.
