I think it would make a tremendous apartment block or remain a pub etc. Can anyone give me any advice about how a building becomes listed and do you think from the attached photo that it is worth saving? Thanks in anticipation. Chris
    Don't let anybody's bad experiences with English Heritage (including mine) put you off, Chris.
    Anybody can submit any building they like for Listing.

    Manchester is the place you want.

    My Georgian styled "Edwardian" block, that I live in.

    Deprived of its unique dockland waters Liverpool
    becomes a Venice without canals, just another city, no
    longer of special interest to anyone, least of all the
    tourist. Would we visit a modernised Venice of filled in
    canals to view its modern museum describing
    how it once was?

    I know i've posted some of these up before but they'll be buried on the 1980/90s thread somewhere. These are on Shaw Street and taken by me in 1990, (the block on the 3rd pic has gone) The last one taken by Joe Devine captures the 'unique' homeless hostel on the left (see the Acacia house thread) also the Ann Fowler womens refuge, part of the Radcliffe estate and St. Georges Heights.

    Shaw Street: Some of those buildings, to the left of the Gymnasium have been demolished recently. They were still standing when I passed a couple of months ago.

    Really,where was this? I can't place an actual house down the bottom end,but it's been a while since I've been that way.

    This was it (June 2005).
    It was just the other side of College Lane.
    Sorry about the "Watermark".

    The finest surviving example of a Georgian Merchant house in Liverpool is not in L8 as one might think, but right opposite where I used to live in Trueman Street L3. (well - according to this plaque anyway)

    It is the former residence of brewer John Houghton who funded the building of Christ Church on Hunter Street.
