Liverpool Hope



Last weekend, my theology course took me to Liverpool for a conference and study day at Hope University. We had a little free time, so went to the Tate on Albert Dock for a fleeting visit on Saturday and to the cathedrals on Sunday. I hadn't been to Liverpool since playing on an orchestra tour at the Garden Festival in 1984! So it was great to go back again; and I think it's a must for a long weekend over the summer. Enjoyed the study too.


Old and new




This amazing building is a ventilation shaft for the Mersey tunnel - so beautiful! It has these statues on the sides




And these wonderfully ornate windows and doors


More tomorrow!
