Liverpool Metropolitian Cathedral

Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral is one of the biggest cathedrals in the country. It’s quite a modern structure with its water tower-styled crown on its top and it’s made entirely out of concrete rather than of traditional blocks of sandstone. But this modern structure has little history other than it was built to recognise Liverpool’s status as having an arch-bishop, and it’s not even in the layout of a traditional church. But it’s good to see that this a church for the people as it makes its availability as a community venue to host small music gigs, beer festivals, and even university examinations. It’s ironic that we just walked around it and used its steps as a plinth to take a group photo. But we did use it to idolise us; just as the arch-bishops did. We never got a chance to look inside as the pubs were calling. But then again, perhaps that would be a good thing as we’d already started on some beer.
