St. George's Hall
Here is where the tour starts. This is the first stop of 18! You will get a brief description of the whole tour and particularly at this stop, you will discover the history of the city of Liverpool. You will learn about Liverpool origins as a tidal pool next to the River Mersey before the town was founded in the 13th century and how it became the city it is today. You will also learn about St. George’s Hall, the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building; not only was its design based upon an ancient temple, but its position on its elevated podium was chosen to increase its dominance over its surroundings.
William Brown Street.
In this stop, you will learn about The William Brown Street Conservation Area, which has a high concentration of the city's major public buildings and now forms the principal cultural quarter of Liverpool. The street was named after William Brown, a powerful merchant who later became MP and philanthropist, donating these lands in 1860 for cultural purposes. The buildings and structures you will see here are: The former County Sessions Court, the Walker Art Gallery, the Central Library, the World Museum Liverpool, Alfred Waterhouse's former North Western Hotel, the neo-Grecian Empire Theatre, the Steble Fountain and the Wellington Memorial.
Liverpool Central Library
We will walk you through the several adjoining historic buildings on William Brown Street, putting special emphasis on The library and World Museum Liverpool. Both share the same building, which is a Grade II listed building built in a classical style.
