Description
St Patrick's Park Place Liverpool: A Parish History 1821-2021 by Michael O'Neill explores the remarkable story of this oldest post-Reformation Catholic church in Liverpool. Built in the early nineteenth century, it has played a pivotal role in the local community for nearly two centuries. From its construction to its current status as the subject of ongoing archaeological investigations, St Patrick's has witnessed significant events and transformations over the years. The church has been a place of worship, burial, and healing, with connections to notable figures and historical episodes, including the 1847 typhus epidemic and the 1974 earthquake. This book offers a unique insight into the history and significance of St Patrick's Park Place Liverpool, shedding light on its enduring presence in the heart of the city.
