Helena House, St Helens.
Helena House, which was the home of the local co-op, was an imposing redbrick building on Baldwin Street. Sometime in the 1990s (I think) it was replaced by a discount store in a nondescript modern building with far less character.

Queen Victoria Statue, Victoria Square
The bronze statue of Queen Victoria, seated on the throne and mounted on a stone plinth, is by G Frampton; it was erected in 1906. A bronze plaque on the plinth reads:
VICTORIA
1837-1901
The figure of Victoria is finely detailed and is similar to the Victoria statue in Leeds by the same sculptor. The statue is Grade II* listed (Historic England List Entry Number: 1075878 https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1075878 ). Originally sited in the middle of Victoria Square, it has been repositioned at the northwest corner of the square.
