Great pic Rod ... great history details - but unless you have gone forward in time(which sounds like a great idea doesn't it)you have taken this pic in Dec 2009 ??

Fascinating photo. I remember many years ago, as a lad, seeing this clock tower from the Wallasey side of the river. I never got round to seeing it close up. Next time I am in Liverpool, I will check it out.
