Liverpool FC shop, Williamson Sq, Liverpool. Not the best of modern architecture.

St Nicholas church, Halewood.

Nice photo Lindylou. Many of Liverpool's 19th C great and good are buried at St Nicholas. Two come to mind William Imrie, co founder of the White Star Line and Robert Horsfall whose family founded many churches in Liverpool.

Nice photo, Lindy.
St Nicholas was quite a popular name for Liverpool churches.
Off the top of my head there's Liverpool's Parish Church, the Greek Church of St Nikolas, and the Pro-Cathedral in Hawke Street.

Oh, and he was the patron saint of prostitutes.
Honest.

Especially when you consider what was on the site before.
The Theatre Royal.

Yes, which became the union cold stores.

Talking of prostitutes, I saw one being arrested on Shaw street last night, she grabbed the coppers wedding tackle and I heard him say 'Come on, you're only making it harder for yourrself'.

Good photo, Philip. The place though looks a mess. What a shame.

What a lovely picture, it is a shame that people think Liverpool is a dump. It is full of beauty!
