St Georges Church

Attachment 18864

St Anthony's, Scotland Road in the distance.

After reading "The Lost Tribes of Everton" and seeing all the pictures on inacityliving I visited Heyworth Street and Netherfield Road yesterday. I walked around St Georges church and had a look at where Havelock Street must have been. (Virtually opposite the church?) I took some pictures, which didn't turn out very well because it was too dull and I've a new camera which I'm still getting used to using.

It's only after reading this book that I now appreciate how the area was destroyed by city planners, and there's nothing to indicate that 150,000 people lived there. It's a good job that books like this are been written and people like Ged and Spike continue to record our local history.

I intend to go back when the weather is a bit warmer and take some more photos and walk up towards Everton Brow, which I didn't do today, as the wind was biting and I'm such a wimp with the cold.

Also I came out of Grecian Terrace into Heyworth Street and saw Everton Library for the first time from that prospective. Another beautiful building being left to rot.

(It's just taken me ages getting those pictures on - but finally I'm a member of the "Picture of the Day" Club!.)

Cheers burkhilly, i'm so glad my site played a part in inspiring you up to Everton for a closer look and welcome to Picture of the day.

And they're good pictures too! - Just needed a bit of a tweak...

Hope you don't mind... (I'm a bit reluctant to mess with other people's images now, in case it's seen as a defacement!)

Great photograph, Billy. Nice to see the old pub being renovated! It seems to me that there are too many older pubs that are swept away only to build an inferior new pub instead. The Aigburth Hotel on Aigburth Road in Cressington Park comes to mind as one landmark that was demolished to build a newer trendy establishment. Ugh.

By the way, and I am judging by the marks above the upper story window, was this pub in a fire?

Cheers

Don't be surprised though if it follows a trend that's befallen some old pubs that are now residential flats.

Wasn't this the pub where they growing a mass of mar...marij...erm...weed and the punters were getting stoned just by being at the bar. :)

Got raided sometime ago and it was believed to be a hot house instead of ale house.

The Richmond was supposed to be another wacky baccy before it went on fire and that has reopened too.
