Wavertree Lock-up
Image: © Sue Adair Taken: 15 Aug 2005
Situated opposite the old Abbey cinema building and near the Wavertree clock-tower, this funny little round house on the village green was an overnight lock-up kept busy with drunks from the numerous hostelries nearby. The green was used as a venue for fairs, bull baiting and cock fighting. Wavertree still retains some of its village atmosphere despite being engulfed by Liverpool.
