The Woolton Picture House
The Woolton Picture House was a landmark and the last remaining independent cinema in Liverpool. Designed by the Architect Lionel A.G. Pritchard it first opened to the public on Boxing Day 1927 and closed on September 3rd 2006 following the untimely death of its patron David Wood, the grandson of Liverpool cinema pioneer John Frederick Wood, who bought the cinema in 1992. It was the only remaining single-screen cinema in the city and was popular with cinema enthusiasts because of its comfortable, armchair-like seating, old-fashioned atmosphere and the fact that films were shown with an interval halfway through, during which usherettes sold ice-cream. In February 2007 it was announced that a group of local businessmen had bought the cinema, and it re-opened on 26th March of the same year.

Built as a branch of the Bank of Liverpool in 1901-02 by Willink & Thicknesse. "Quiter than most" (e.g. compare with Image]). At the time it was still a branch of Barclays, but unsurprisingly it has since closed.

Eleanor Rigby headstone at St Peter's Church, Church Road, Woolton
Among the gravestones at St Peter's Church, Woolton stands a headstone above a plot in which a certain 'Eleanor Rigby' was buried. Although Paul McCartney denies this has any link with the song, can it be just a coincidence that it was at a Garden Fête in a field behind this church that Paul McCartney first saw a certain John Lennon performing with his group 'The Quarry Men' on 6 July 1957?
