Just to let anyone know who may be interested. There will be a community screening of Gardens of Stone at the Lee Jones League of Welldoers on Limekiln Lane at 2pm on Thursday 19th April.

They and the Scottie Press are putting this on as the film contains early 1900s footage of the league of welldoers and they will also have their photographs on show. It will also commemorate the 20th anniversary of the demolition of the Gerard Gardens/Crescent blocks of which there is unusually so much footage in existance from their building, right through the decades, including 2 films shot in there in the 50s and the 80s, considering they were just council tenements.

Around 50 local dignitaries are expected to attend with around 150 free seats available for the general public which went on release at 10am this morning. Contact Lesley on 0151 207 1984. It would appear that around 40 odd of these have already been snapped up by locals which may result in another screening some time in the future.

The Wavertree Historic Society screening went very well last night which was attended by a full house.

Report has it that no stone was used in these buildings?

Cement and bricks yes, but stone was very lacking.
