    R. Griffiths "The History of the Royal and Ancient Park of Toxteth" (1907) states:
    "Another small quarry once existed where Fairview Place, Park Road , now is. The pillars which form the colonnade in front of Great Georges Street Chapel, were also obtained here; these are all in one piece and are said to be the only thing of the kind in this part of the country."

    I checked this a few months ago, and they are one piece pillars.
    Yes, that's correct.
    One piece pillars are called monoliths, and they are considered to be the first in the country.
