    St Phillip's Church, Hardman Street, viewed from St Lukes. St. Phillip's was on the same side as the Philharmonic pub.

    It was higher up the Street than that. WSteve55

    It was on the block where the 'Fly in the Loaf' is now.

    If so, you couldn't have that view from St.Lukes,which is at the bottom of the hill?

    Not seen a picture of this old church before and can't find a reference to it in any of my old books. Very interesting though, thanks for posting it.

    Doesn't really look finished, does it? Like they got the nave done but never got around to a tower or spire...

    The gates and railings are quite reminiscient of St. Luke's across the road.

    Sorry the 'view' was not exactly from St Luke's - that was me offering some general bearings to the picture.

    Hopefully this will clear it up. See where it says "Rodney Street" in large bold letters on the map. ie:

    R O D N E Y

    S T R E E T

    St Phillip's Church is located directly beneath the letter "E" in 'Rodney'. So that would site it between Baltimore Street, Hardman Street, South Hunter Street [looks like on A-Z]. There's another street parallel to Hardman Street which I wasn't able to read on the map. Interestingly there was a Jewish Synagogue on the opposite side of the road, to the church.

    Hi Darren,so Samp was right! The "Fly in the Loaf" pub,used to be a general grocery store,with a "by Royal appointment" sign over the door! It then became "Kirklands" wine bar. The street parallel,is Maryland st,I think

    Hi Steve, that sounds about right. Maryland Street also rings a bell.
    Cheers

    Hi Knowhowe,

    King's College Chapel, Cambridge [1446?1531] could have been the inspiration? Also St. Anthony's Church, in Scotland road has a nave, but no tower. I don't think it's that uncommon to see.

    The Fly in the Loaf was originally a Kirklands bakery,part of a chain of bakery shops in Liverpool,hence the names Fly in the Loaf and Kirklands bar

    See also St Judes, Hardwick Street.

    They are all Gothic Revival (partiuarly Perpendicular) favoured by Thomas Rickman. See also: Holy Trinity Church, Bristol. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holy_Tr..._Lawrence_Hill
