    Excellent. Last time I went into St. Georges hall was for jury duty. I sat around but wasn't even chosen. The floor was covered in chipboard.

    Here's the new 800 coat of arms:



    The artwork will not be used instead of the city’s official coat of arms.
    THIS is the first exclusive view of the Birthday Coat of Arms which will be unveiled by Prince Charles next week. more

    Just had a fantastic gift from a person who I completed a website for. They have sent me a copy of a book (which you may all be aware of) called 'The Little Book of Liver Birds' - and shows over 100 places (including photo's and maps) of where they are around liverpool!!

    Found some which aren't on this list so far so gonna get me camera out and appear that I know loads of em

    isbn number for the book is 1-85983-547-3 £9.99 written by David Cottrell.

    Technically that only applied to when Toxteth was only a park surely? Aren't the books you read as credible as the people the council employ to keep records of there boundary maps?

    It's only barley. on the edge of the boundary of the Toxteth.net map anyway so maybe It can be argued It's not In Toxteth.

    It says half my street was Toxteth park too but not the half where I live.

    I can see a Liver Bird and a Red Rose but can anyone else shed some light on this.
    It is defo a Blazer Badge. At first I thought it was a Cricket Club but now I am not sure. They do not look like cricket bats.

    Hi Phredd

    They look a bit more like swords to me than cricket bats. The red rose would imply Lancashire and the wheatsheaf could be Cheshire or else the Cooperative Wholesale Society (CWS). The badge is certainly intriguing. It might have something to do with the Historical Society of Lancashire and Cheshire whose logo combined the red rose and the wheatsheaf for the two counties and the Liver Bird could be for the Liverpool chapter of the society.

    Thanks Chris.

    If you look closer at the centre, either side of the 'C' you can see what appears to be 2 balls. That is what made me think of cricket (or maybe Baseball, but I doubt it)
