About this Event
Liverpool can rightly be described as a Georgian city, a Victorian city, a post-war city and, increasingly, a 21st-century city.
On this walk we’ll explore part of the Georgian Quarter, uncovering the stories behind elegant terraces and civic buildings. Along the way we’ll also encounter magnificent Victorian architecture, post-war reconstruction and contemporary additions — including the “statue exceeding bare” mentioned in the well-known song.
Come for the walk, stay for the stories.
About These Walks
These small-group walks are unhurried and conversation-led, with time to pause, notice and reflect.
Storytelling focused rather than scripted, they help you learn to “read” the city and see familiar places from fresh perspectives.
French-language walks available on request.
