Queen Building

The Old Brit posted a photo:

Hiding at the end of Queen Avenue where it meets Sweeting Street in Liverpool city centre. Here, it's viewed from Dale Street via a half hidden, arched & gated entrance. Incidentally, this is officially Liverpool's most perfectly preserved Victorian enclave but, is still unknown to sooo many people;both locals and visitors.

Liverpool's best preserved & prettiest Victorian enclave. Probably one of Liverpool's best kept 'secrets' too. View is towards Dale Street (through gated archway) from steps of Queen Building.

Psst! It ain't really whale-bone ... it's metal, and a fine piece of modern design and engineering too.

A side chapel in the ancient Ripon cathedral. I have to say that I did NOT like the modern ironwork embellishment at this particular chapel's entrance.
