May 22nd 2010 - Town Hall

Liverpool Town Hall is 'home' to the Lord Mayor M.Storey. It is in fact the third Town Hall to be built on or near the site. The first Town Hall was built in 1515, followed by the second in 1673. Today's Town Hall was built in 1754 by architect John Wood from Bath. The Statue of Minerva sits on top of the domed roof designed by Felix Rossi, sculptor to the Royal Family. A semi forgotten building in Liverpool, due mainly to the other fantastic architecture in the city, but still it is a very impressive historical building.
