    Most people, including Liverpool City Council call it the Scandinavian Hotel, but I don't think it was.
    It was Langdon's from at least 1889. (Source: 1890 street directory).
    The date of 1887 was painted when the new roof was put on, so I suspect that the owner knows something that we don't.
    (Probably that it was built in 1887 for Langdons.)
    I'm researching the history at the moment.
    Joseph Sharples has emailed me to say this building was built about 1858 for Abbott's who were cabinet makers.
    It was designed by Henry Sumners who was responsible for a number of churches and the Southern Hospital.



    My research has found that the date of 1887 refers to when the building was taken over by Langdon's.
    The Scandinavian Hotel was in Duke Street - behind this building - and was demolished in the early 1930s to make way for an extension to Langdons.
