Bootle Town Hall is a beautiful piece of civic architecture
I’m a great admirer of Victorian civic architecture. I mentioned elsewhere a recent visit to Huddersfield which is chocker with such splendid buildings. Though, like Bootle, the town has become rather shabby.
Wandering away down Off-Topic Lane, what do you think of Liverpool’s cathedrals? I like the Catholic one purely because of its pleasingly unique design but find the Anglican one to be an unwelcoming, rather intimidating vast edifice that attempts to ape the great medieval cathedrals but fails badly. Don’t like the red stone either, though am aware it’s from a local quarry.
