  • Welcome explorers, in this video we're on an exploring adventure around Liverpool Castle.
    History: Lord Leverhulme commissioned a replica of Liverpool Castle to be built on his Rivington estate of Lever Park, near Horwich. He had read a work about the original castle by E.W. Cox written in 1892. The description of the Liverpool castle site struck him as being similar to the promontory of Coblowe within his estate. Coblowe is a rocky area that overlooks the Lower Rivington Reservoir.
    He concluded that this would be an ideal place to resurrect the lost Liverpool stronghold. Work began in 1912 using locally quarried gritstone. The construction proceeded very slowly with only a few stone masons and labourers being employed on the project. It was never completed as work stopped after Leverhulme’s death in 1925.
    Remember, the world is full of hidden gems waiting to be discovered. Until next time, keep exploring and never stop seeking adventure.

    Oh my dog, I'm 75 years British, and never knew there was a Liverpool Castle !
    I used live not far from Southampton and Winchester Castles.
    Such a beautiful place to visit too. I'm in USA now so it's unlikely I will ever see this for real. So thank you very much for this video. 💖💖
    I'll be back later to read about it's history. ☺
