Does anyone have any old pics of this church ?
I have never seen any old pics of it. Very strange....

"St James became redundant in 1974, "

My cousin was one of the last to be married there. Friends of mine helped out painting the place.

"and was vested into the care of the Churches Conservation Trust in 1976. It may have become redundant because of plans to construct Junction 1 of the M62 motorway on the site."

Pull it down to make a motorway junction!! Those people must have had brain damage.

I need to have a nose up the tower at some point! Never been in that church yet!

I donated the domain name and have waived the annual hosting fees. I just wish I could contribute more.

Does anyone have a contact for the church - when it is next open and the like? I did contact one of the bods via their e-mail address which was posted on a previous posting but no reply as such.

A crime to let this go to waste and a crime to turn it in to anything else other than its purpose.

I did hear half-a-milion Pounds was spent repairing this this church a few years ago. I wonder when all the clocks will be returned?

This building is usually on the Heritage Open Day list...Sept or Oct usually?

got a reply from Helen Swift today.
She sent a form to fill in, and said there should be an open day soon.

Will let you all know!

Yeah I got one too but I didn't get a form to fill in!

There are no bells in the tower but I want to have a good nose at the clock up there and see what was there at one time. As soon as there's an open day I'll be there too missy!

Jon mate, I see you're using some of my 1999 and 2003 Welsh Presbyterian Church pics on the Toxteth page of your excellent site. No probs Jon, but I need a credit and a link. Thanks
