THE LOCK-UP REFURBISHED
For a long time now - as reported in Newsletter 172 - we have been pressing for repairs to Wavertree's historic Lock-up to be carried out. Among the visitors to our stall at one of the first Farmers' Markets, last autumn, was the Leader of the City Council, Councillor Warren Bradley, and we took the opportunity to bring the state of the Lock-up to his attention. The result - in late February and early March - has been a total refurbishment of the Lock-up by specialist contractors, who have made the building watertight, replaced defective/missing slates and lead flashings, re-dressed/replaced and re-pointed the sandstone blocks, and installed a new power supply. We look forward to unlocking and showing off the building, once again, at the next Heritage Open Day in September.
