Merseyside Halls, Estates and Dwellings

Allerton Tower Out Houses - Walking around the outside, through the grounds I found this weird and wonderful archway leading

through a short tunnel into a very small enclosed area surrounded by a wall and landscaping. I havn't a clue what is was used for but

fascinating:

Onto the

buildings.....

Brilliant thanks for all them pictures Kev it looks like you've been

very busy,that tour of Speke Hall does sound good shame about the no camera rule though.

[Kev]

Cheers Paul, very busy indeed. Speke Hall plus its history is amazing, especially in

the dark

Well if you've got

£99 to spare you could always join the UK haunted and haunted truth team at Croxteth Hall at Halloween,personally I'll be giving that one a miss.It's a bit

like most haunted with the psychic medium and a fully equipped investigation team if anyone is interested.

[Kev]

I'll give that a miss too

Sad to see all that graffiti in Allerton

Tower. We used to walk the dog around there a long time ago. It didn't look as bad as that then.
We've walked around the places you mentioned Kev and

it always used to be dead quiet and a bit spooky
Then we used to go over to Clarkes gardens.

Havn't been around there for ages.

Is Allerton Tower a slide through the railings job? Or is it easily accessible?

More Speke Hall pictures taken today - 22nd December 2006. The house was closed and there was no one else there apart from us. Very cold and we felt like kings in our own estate .


^^Shows how close the airport is^^














Many many more pictures can be found in the set here.

Splendid Speke Hall pics, Kev. Well done. The pic of the sandstone house which is not I think part of the hall, is that a building on the estate. If so I don't recognize it though I have been to Speke Hall on a large number of occasions. I know that the kitchen wing which I believe is the older part of the hall is sandstone, and I have take a black and white pic of the mullioned window there in past years, but the building you show appears a separate building. Please clarify if you would.

This one Chris? I assume it's part of 'the Estate' and a private residence. Not too sure.

Again great pictures,I've never noticed that stone head before.
