It's quite strange to think that the church/tower there is fairly 'new' i.e. they replaced the church (or at least most of it) after the war and before that in 1810, the old tower came down and had to be totally rebuilt.



Something that you may not know is that after this incident, all church towers were checked in Liverpool for structural problems and it was found that Childwall was in a poor state as well. This is why they built a new tower at All Saints Childwall around the same time as the one at St Nicks!
Thanks, Jona. No I didn't know that about Childwall Church -- could explain why the "gargoyles" that you showed us recently look a bit "fake"-- eh?
