Copperas Hill, Liverpool
Looking NE up Copperas Hill from beside the Adelphi hotel, to the left, the newly built student accommodation on land previously occupied by a coach station and to the right the Royal Mail Liverpool HQ. Copperas was the old name for Copper Sulphate, which was produced at works owned by the Hughes family which was forced to move in 1756 due to the foul smell! Frank Hornby, inventor of the famous Meccano set, was born here in 1863.

Former sorting office, Copperas Hill, Liverpool
Forgive the poor quality shot, but this building has since been demolished and so it cannot be improved upon. It was built in 1973-77 by IDC Ltd and designed by Twist & Whitley.
Almost inevitably it has been replaced by student accommodation.
