St Anthony`s on Scotland Rd,taken from Everton Park yesterday. A ship is making it`s way down the Mersey.As I am posting this I`m hearing that there was a fire in there caused by a candle on the altar falling onto the carpet which means the church will be closed for a few days.

Is St Anthonys another Rickman job? It looks strikingly similar to the print og St Judes above.
Great pic Joe but afraid it'll be a few weeks not days, Ron Formby from the Scottie Press discovered the fire when he and Rita opened up last week, the main space was cloaked in smoke like a fog he said.

Here's a little bit about the church and parish Fortinian.

St. Oswald's church Old Swan was built in 1842.
Quote from a book on the Parish Church:
"St. Oswald's Church was built by the exertions and self sacrifice of the Very Rev John Cannon Maddocks. The Architect was Augustus Welby Puglin. The foundation stone was laid in 1839 and the church was opened on the 4th August 1842. Cannon Maddocks died on 4th March 1864.
The book I have also has an article on the "Strange secret of Old Swan", which was about the 3,561 corpses found next to the church when they were going to build the new school. This is mentioned on another thread in here I think.
I do have pics to upload but I think "Yo" just doesn't like me as it doesn't seem to want to let me....

I was baptised in this church, it's very impressive inside and out, and is grade 1 listed.
