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.
