The proximity to historic Edge Lane station could have raised the possibility of a railway museum as part of the exhibits. Totally unsuitable as a school due to the nearby roads.David Swifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13838907571085592544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104159472128891542.post-24787346134860139242009-06-09T11:05:32.221+01:002009-06-09T11:05:32.221+01:00Very Naive to have that opinion you obviously are ...Very Naive to have that opinion you obviously are not familiar with Liverpool politicsLiverpool Preservation Trusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11647181330351880690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104159472128891542.post-59249064287374242082009-06-08T17:44:37.550+01:002009-06-08T17:44:37.550+01:00Why should it be?

Getting c20th buildings listed is very difficult, and there are other, possibly better, examples of the period listed.Nemesis https://www.blogger.com/profile/16935291114531954647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104159472128891542.post-55624220766280200182009-06-08T15:51:04.851+01:002009-06-08T15:51:04.851+01:00But when the NWDA own the land which is the govern...But when the NWDA own the land which is the government Regional Development Authority how can it not be influenced?Liverpool Preservation Trusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11647181330351880690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104159472128891542.post-43379992590352274862009-06-08T15:42:04.373+01:002009-06-08T15:42:04.373+01:00He's only one of a chain of people.

I think it was marginal for listing possibly, but a big push for Conservation Area status is possibly the way to go.Nemesis https://www.blogger.com/profile/16935291114531954647noreply@blogger.com
