IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Watmough Street, LIVERPOOL, L5 3LB

Rather different from http://web.archive.org/web/20071017233109/http://www.mersey-gateway.org/server.php?show=conMediaFile.14837 which shows Richard Brown's photo of a court on Prince Edwin Street in 1913. Below on the left, flats are being built at City View. The building behind the trees on the right is Campion Catholic High School. Behind, the northern end of Liverpool city centre.

Three handsome three-storey, three-bay houses, built c1826. Each has an Ionic porch. They were originally part of a longer terrace, the rest of which was shamefully demolished in the early 2000s. Grade II listed. The middle house, and possibly the others, are occupied by Riverside, a charity helping homeless people.

A fragment of a late Georgian terrace shamefully demolished as late as c2010. Nothing has since been done with the site. Three houses have survived: Image

From Image; the steps and railings can be seen in Image The flats at City View are being built on the right. In the distance are the Anglican Cathedral and the Radio City Tower.

Looking down from Everton Park. The two cathedrals are in view, but the three tower blocks no longer exist.

A view from Everton Park. A lot of building has taken place in the city centre since this was taken.

This is the famous Everton roundhouse featured on the EFC badge, sometimes known as Prince Rupert's Tower. At the end of the 1937/38 season, club secretary Theo Kelly, who later became The Toffees first post-war manager, wanted to design a club necktie and although it was agreed that the colour should be blue, Kelly was given the task of designing a crest to be featured on the tie. Kelly considered the matter for four months until deciding on a reproduction of the tower which stands in the heart of the Everton district. The roundhouse has been inextricably linked with the Everton area since its construction in 1787, originally used as a bridewell to incarcerate criminals, it still stands today on Everton Brow in Netherfield Road. The roundhouse was accompanied by two laurel wreaths on either side and, according to the College of Heraldry and Arms in London, chosen as they were the signs of winners in classical times. The crest was accompanied by the club motto, "Nil Satis, Nisi Optimum", which means "Only the best is good enough". The ties were first worn by Kelly and the Everton chairman, Mr. E. Green on the first day of the 1938/39 season.

The former St Mary of the Angels, founded in 1909. It was funded by Amy Elizabeth Imrie, a Catholic convert and nun who became Abbess of the Poor Clare Sisters and was heiress to the White Star Line shipping fortune. It is a Grade II Listed Building and was closed in 2001 by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Liverpool but was prevented from stripping the church's listed Italian High Renaissance-style marble interior fixtures and fittings. Since 2006 it has become a rehearsal space for the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra.

Between the columns can be seen the two Liverpool cathedrals and St Francis Xavier's spire.

Some of the park gives a raised view over Liverpool. St Anthony's Catholic Church is prominent towards the right. New Brighton is in the background. Another Catholic church can be seen in New Brighton, that of Sts Peter & Paul & St Philomena.
