More about this scene

St. George's Hall dominates the left side of our photograph, and the London North Western Hotel the right side. St George's Hall is unique, being a combination of two law courts, a concert hall, a theatre, a jail and cells. This is one of the finest buildings in the whole of Great Britain. Liverpool Council are doing a lot to make it more available to the public. The horse trams in the foreground would run for another decade before electric trams took their place. The Wellington column can be seen in the centre of the picture.
