The original of this and its companion, the Architect, are going in the People's City gallery in the new Pier Head museum. They were in the Museum of Liverpool life at Mann Island in the past.
Between those times it was a branch of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Bank, then Bank of Liverpool, then Martins Bank for very many years before closure following the latter's takeover by Barclays and disposal of the site to Co-op.Quote:

will post pix of new Ken Dodd/Bessie Braddock statues as soon as I can get photobucket to work grrr
right, got there in the end.
people with more advanced cameras should be able to get better pics as the statues are in quite a dull part of the station. Only found out about these as someone had left an Echo in the clinic when me and hubby went this afternoon.
they are by platforms 7 and 8
