Liverpool: The former Non Pareil public house, L3
The community that this former Bass house served, at the junction of Marshall Place with Summer Seat, has just disappeared, either by wartime bomb damage, or by slum clearance, or by the works for the approach road to the Kingsway Tunnel in the early 1970s. Whatever, it found itself at the far end of a no through road and now surrounded on two sides by scrub vegetation, and presumably was just not viable. It is currently up for auction, with planning permission to convert it into a residential block, through Sutton Kersh with guide price of £190,000.

Our Lady of Reconciliation Priest's House & Church
The parish of Our Lady of Reconciliation de la Salette was originally established in 1854. The first church was a converted warehouse in Blackstock Street. The parish was established to cater for the large numbers of Irish people coming to Liverpool at the time of the famine in 1847 who settled in this area.

Liverpool: Bevington Street, Vauxhall, L3
This is a terrace of classic Edwardian houses built in 1911, only spoilt by some unsympathetic replacement doors and windows. However the broad street and open aspect conceal the fact that the terrace in the parallel street to the rear of these properties, Summer Seat, is very close, and just visible at the far left of the photo.
