In this short series I would like to share with you some of Liverpool's most famous monuments and memorials, and there locations. Hopefully this will prove a useful guide on your visit to the city

A popular meeting place for people, and pigeons, is this most intriguing landmark in Liverpool city centre, The Great Escape, pictured above

Obviously nothing to do with Steve McQueen and flying motor bikes, this creation is the work of artist Edward Cronshaw and weighs in at over three tons!

A short walk up Church Street and you’ll find these two fine gentlemen, Sir John Moores 1862 – 1993 and Mr Cecil Moores 1902 – 1989 – the empty whiskey bottle was not, of course, part of the original art work

Captain FJ Walker - Battle of The Atlantic war convoys memorial. You’ll find the Captain at the Liverpool Pier Head in front of the Three Graces, looking out over the River Mersey

Heroes of the Marine Engine Room (titanic) – also in the background of this picture you’ll notice cranes at work as part of the Liverpool ‘Big Dig’ – we’re getting ready for you folks!

At the bottom of Castle Street (or the top depending which way you’re coming from) you’ll find The Queen Victoria Monument

And at the other end of Castle Street, the Nelson Memorial

If you're coming to visit - can't wait to see ya la!
