    I took this image with this thread in mind...


    Derby Lane, Old Swan This is on the fence outside of the "One-Stop-Shop" on Derby Lane. It's a shame that some of the Purple paint has worn off, could have had a complete Liver Bird!

    Loved those images Kev, was that at a Town Hall open day or something? Some of those scenes look familiar.

    Should that be half-naked or half-knackered?

    I thought the Liver Building looked odd today, the lass must have wanted to go on vacation.

    Why didn't I notice they had Liver-birds on em? Tell you what, your the first one! The Liverpool streetlighting community (comprising of 5 approx) talk endlessly about how the vintage streetlighting is so great and not one of them (including me) haven't noticed the liver birds on the bollard.

    I think I should have gone to Specsavers!

    The Boundary Street and Sefton Street Ramp Liverbirds look like they're cast from the same mould. There are other examples of this casting along the canal.

    A small Culture bid logo still exists on Scotland road (the caged-in flats in the background are due for demolition)
