St. George Church "The Iron Church"

Lovely photographs, Mandy!

Following is a poem of mine that I posted on the Liverpool 800 Poems site.

The Blake Mistake

Henri took Ginsberg to St. George’s, Everton,
chill church interior constructed of cast iron:
iron columns, vaulted ribs, window tracery,
all transported via horse-drawn dray from
Cragg’s Forge, Toxteth. As they emerged

Wasn't Cragg's foundry off Dale Street?

How did you get up there Mandy, you,re not absailing again are you?

Great views from what has become the family church since St Benedicts was pulled down. Our lot seem to have their services from there now.

Well done Mandy.
