Liverpool Castle

[ChrisGeorge]

Enough paintings and drawing were done to know what it was

like.

Hi Waterways

My point is that from those views you don't get the inside details of what the castle looked like, you only see it from

a distance and usually from the water. This is why one of the references on the castle is entitled, E.W. Cox, 1892, 'An Attempt to Recover the Plans of the

Castle of Liverpool from Authentic records; Considered in Connection with Medieval Principles of Defence and Construction,' Transactions of the

Lancashire and Cheshire Antiquarian Society Vol42 p195-254 [map, plans, diag]

Mr Cox's investigation resulted in the conjectural detailed drawing

seen at the top of Mike Royden's page on the castle

I see



there was a replica of what they thought the castle looked like built at Rivington. See http://www.bolton.org.uk/rivington.html
