16 Cook Street, Liverpool
Wednesday, August 25th, 201016 Cook Street, Liverpool isn’t the most astonishing building ever but the Grade II* Listed Building is one of only two by the architect Peter Ellis.

It was packed with children on school holidays so I’ve still not been inside but I’m going to try to get over there one day when I’m […]
