The Pineapple Hotel, Park Road, Liverpool
Solid Italianate boozer on the corner of Moses Street.
The pub may already have closed when this photo was taken - a sign read "Public bar open as usual", but it didn't look open. It continued as a hotel, but has now probably been converted to flats.

Ancient Chapel of Toxteth
For almost 400 years this little sandstone chapel has stood at the bottom of Park Rd near the junction with Dingle Lane. Toxteth was once a magnificent forest where King John created a Royal park of 2,000 acres where he and his knights could hunt deer and wild boar.

In 2007 after hearing how the community wanted to restore the building Prince Charles personally requested a tour of it and has supported the restoration ever since. Officially re-opened by Prince Charles in January 2013, the building was restored partly by funding of 4.2 million pounds by the Heritage Lottery Fund amongst others.

The former Gaumont Cinema, Dingle
It is no longer in use, and it is always difficult to find alternative uses for buildings such as this. It is a significant local landmark.

The Sailors' Chapel
The Sailors' Chapel is situated on the corner of Beresford Road and Cockburn Street. Liverpool has a long tradition of sailors’ chapels and churches and they almost always had a band and were active in the local community. There was previously a sailors' chapel at the lower end of Wellington Road (renamed Herculaneum Road when new housing was built) and this building replaced that original tin chapel.
