Taken at the junction of Falkner Street and Hope Street, Liverpool, I am looking down Falkner Street and can just see the terrace which includes the Grade II listed 62 Falkner Street, the subject of the history documentary originally broadcast in 2018 and presented by historian David Olusoga.

A handsome brick terrace built c1830. It consists of seven three-bay houses, each of three storeys plus basement, their pilastered doorcases approached up short flights of steps flanked by iron railings with fleur-de-lys heads. Grade II listed. Liverpool's Georgian quarter was laid out by John Foster senior, the Corporation Surveyor, in 1800. He established an attractive network of wide streets which were later filled with handsome brick terraces, mainly of three-storey houses of two or three bays with doorcases of varying styles and windows with painted wedge lintels. Cavalier treatment of the area by the city council for many decades, resulting in the demolition of many listed Georgian buildings, some of which were owned by the council itself, has been reversed over the last decade or so, and Liverpool can still boast one of the most outstanding arrays of Georgian buildings anywhere in the country.

A rather sumptuous stucco terrace of 6 houses in L8 - a contrast to the usual more austere brick.

A stuccoed Italianate terrace dating from c1850. Grade II listed.

An early C19th terrace of three-bay houses. The ends of Liverpool's terraces are treated well so as not to present blank walls to the street. Grade II listed.
