Lovely pictures, *sighs* I missed it, probably due to the lack of publicity
but its always a good event.

It's sad this St John's church has had to close down. Clearly the local people stopped attending. No doubt in time they'll realise what an asset they have lost. The church was built for his clergyman son by Sir John Tobin who lived in the big house in what is now Central Park. Sir John is buried in the church's graveyard. The family made their initial wealth out of the slave trade.
Just one of the very desirable houses in Wellington Road that overlook the Irish Sea.
The ground is so steep that the ground floor at the front is the first floor at the back!
At the turn of the 20th century this house was owned by James Kiernan, a Liverpool theatre owner.
Among his theatres were the Park Palace in Mill Street, the Paddington Palace and the Tivoli Palace in Lime Street (later the Palais de Luxe).
He also built the Irving Theatre in Seacombe.
I had a flat in this house in the 1970s.

Great picture, clear and well composed. You are fast becoming one of our top photographers. Congratulations.
You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else.
