    17. The Town Hall
    The present town hall was built in 1926 on the site of the one destroyed by fire on 28 September 1920, in reprisal for the capture of Mallow Barracks. Prior to the first Town Hall a drapery business was conducted on the site by Mr. Rafferty, from whom it was purchased by the Urban District Council.

    18. Fitzgerald Monument

    Flickr is sometimes amazing! From 2016 via Diego Sideburns who says,
    "Patrick Byrne Monument
    In the grounds of the Church of St Anthony of Egypt, Scotland Road, Liverpool is the monument to Irishman "Dandy" Patrick Byrne who went to Liverpool as a 17 year old emigrant from Wexford and became a successful businessman and a Liverpool Councillor. He died in 1890 and a monument acknowledging his generosity to the Irish people in the Scotland Road area was erected in Scotland Place outside of the Morning Star Pub which Patrick Byrne owned. The original monument was removed from Scotland Place when work began on the second Mersey tunnel in the late 1960s. The monument was moved to another location and from there subsequently finished up in a Liverpool Corporation Yard. The whereabouts of the monument became known in 1998 and efforts to restore as much of the remaining parts of the monument succeeded in having it sited in the grounds of St Anthony's Church."

    beachcomber australia So we're not in Warrington at all, as we thought, but in Liverpool proper then? Must have been the "Warrington's Ales" that led the Krazy Kataloguer astray.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Seems so.

    "The Morning Star was situated at 24-28 Scotland Place. This pub has now been demolished."

    "Possibly the best known pub, and one I have mentioned before in this blog, was the Morning Star at 24 Scotland Place. It was better known as Dandy Pat’s on account of its charismatic landlord Pat Byrne, also a Liverpool councillor. It was positioned at the city end of the Scottie where it became Byrom Street, most of which was demolished to make way for the second Mersey Tunnel road scheme. There is a great photo of the Morning Star with its front ‘arched’ windows, and Walker’s Warrington Ales sign on the left. In the centre is the Birmingham Arms ( a Threlfalls pub renowned for their blue and white livery, at 14 Scotland Place) next to the ’98 Shop’. In the centre next to the tramlines is the ‘Dandy Pat Memorial Fountain’ which, after a previous relocation, survives today in the grounds of St.Anthony’s church further along Scotland Road. ..."
