Taffy,the Casbah was not at Lowlands..
Lowlands was the home of the Pillar Club where many of the great groups played in their early days. They included the early Beatles (then the Quarrymen), Gerry and the Pacemakers, the Searchers, Hollies and Billy J. Kramer. Beatles manager Brian Epstein was a visitor.
George Harrison frequently visited Lowlands as a teenager. He honed his guitar skills there with the Les Stewart Quartet.
I tried to Email you Taffy but you are not accepting Emails.
Hope you don't mind me mentioning this Taff.
Thanks for the correction Gerard. My memory clearly failed me !!!
For our readers, here's some more info

My confusion was that both the Pillar Club and the Casbah were both on Hayman's Green , West Derby.

Fine photograph, Max!
I kind of like the subdued colours of this but it would be interesting to see what you could do with it in sunlight. Good luck!

Birkenhead Park. This delightful Park has recently been renovated. It was it seems the model for New York's Central Park
Double posting to keep things going. Sculpture, at Sudley House Mossley Hill, of the children of Liverpool Banker John and Georgiana Naylor.
Two Bridges, Queens Drive. It's a shame that the row of cast-iron posts on the left have been replaced. There were about a dozen of them...all gone now.
