This is The Palm House in Sefton Park, Liverpool. The Palm House has recently been restored to its former glory and is now a magnificent Grade II Listed Building at the centre of one of the largest urban parks in Britain.

Very impressive structure. The positioning is very good, but I'm not sure about the blue haloes in the trees??

Super shadows!

A great pic Steve that always leaves me sad
Being a London boy I was born about 5 miles from the original Crystal Palace But hey there's still a great football club, and sports stadium there. There was a Amusement park there until about 1969 until a accident shut the ground down. :o(. To be honest I hate contemporary buildings replacing priceless relics from the past, progress is a word I depise, but at least this one's a good old un. :o). Faved

I just hate dirty cutlery !! A mistreated dog should try to leave a deposit on their masters best carpet, after all it's important to establish who's boss ... My gallery is here.

A very interesting link there U. Steve. I will have to make a trip to see it. I really love these glasshouses, at least their glass has lasted longer than my greenhouse. A very nice shot. yfj

It's like a mini Kew, I had no idea there was a palm house in Sefton Park. This is a good view of it and I like the way you placed the path off-centre.
