St John, Liscard Road, Wallasey
The noble, and blackened, Doric front dates from 1832-33, the only known work of Henry Turberville Edwards, for Sir John Tobin. They never got round to the steeple. The Storeton stone used for the front ends abruptly on the returns. Grade II listed.
Repaired after bomb damage in 1942, but redundant since 2004 and inaccessible.

St John's Church, Egremont
St John's was built in 1832–33, and was designed by Henry Turberville Edwards; it is his only known work. The church was built on land owned by Sir John Tobin, whose son became the first vicar. The church was consecrated on 31 October 1831 by the Rt. Revd. John Bird Sumner, bishop of Chester, and it opened for worship on 19 May 1833. In 1881 it was restored by Cornelius Sherlock; this included removing the galleries, replacing box pews with benches, moving the organ, enclosing the chancel, and adding two new windows. In 1942 the church was damaged by a bomb blast, and was repaired in the 1950s with a new roof. It was declared redundant on 1 July 2004, and approval for conversion into residential use was agreed on 6 December 2006. As of August 2018 the church was put into private ownership with the intention of reopening it as Church again.

Liscard Hall, Central Park
In the early nineteenth century, Liscard Hall (then called Moor Heys House) and the surrounding parkland was home of Sir John Tobin, ship owner, merchant, African trader and one-time Mayor of Liverpool. On the death of his successor, son-in-law Harold Littledale in 1889, Wallasey Local Board bought the estate and opened it to the public on Whit Monday 1891. The building is disused and in disrepair having been used as a science and art college until 1982.
In the early hours of 7th of July 2008 this building was set ablaze, possibly by vandals, and has since been demolished. http://www.historyofwallasey.co.uk/wallasey/liscard_hall/index.html
