    Here's a couple of photographs of me at Tuebrook House getting a photograph of the 1615 date stone above the door, pics courtesy of Gerard. Unfortunately my close-up did not turn out so maybe someone else could get it.

    Default Drain down spout

    Spotted high up on SS Matthew and James Church of England Church, Mossley Hill. Church rather narcistically named after its benefactor one Matthew James Glenton. Money left to build the church providing it was built in the township of Garston

    1874 Date stone relates to the time when it was a Wesleyan Methodist Church. The church became St Mary's after WW2 and replaced the previously named St Mary's, Sandown Park which was destroyed by aerial bombing

    I've still yet to work out which is the highest point in Liverpool, whether it is Liverpool Cathedral, St Peter's Church Woolton or the Reservoir above. I'll need to go up St Peter's woolton again and see what I can see!

    Default 1885 date stone Victoria St

    Victoria St was cut through as a new street in the last quarter of the 19th C. It runs parallel to Dale St, one of the oldest streets in Liverpool. Essentially it was a slum clearance operation. The slums being replaced by many fine buildings. This one dates from 1885.
