What to do and see in Liverpool, England: The Best Cemeteries

March 12, 2022 Almeta Stockton

Liverpool's fortunes have historically been tied to shipping. But imports and exports like sugar, spice and tobacco pale in comparison with Liverpool's most famous export of all—the Beatles. Relive the hysteria at the Beatles Story Experience, and check out Paul's childhood home, but also leave time for exploring Liverpool Cathedral and the Walker Art Gallery.

St. Peter's Church, Woolton

We are a lovely Anglican Church located in Woolton village, South Liverpool. The cornerstone for the current Church was laid in 1886, and it was built from local sandstone. The 90-ft high bell tower contains 8 bells and is the highest point in Liverpool with fabulous views of Merseyside, Lancashire, Cheshire and the Welsh hills. Inside are many fine features, including a wonderful Church organ and a beautiful set of stained glass windows, designed by the famous artist Charles Kempe. The two smaller windows were removed from the original church and were designed by William Morris. St Peter's Church is most famous for being the location where John Lennon met Paul McCartney on July 6, 1957, and the Lennon-McCartney partnership was born. The Church graveyard provides the final resting place for 'our' Eleanor Rigby, as well as John Lennon's uncle, George Toogood Smith, and Bob Paisley, the most successful manager in the history of Liverpool Football Club.

We stopped by St Peter's to see Eleanor Rigbys headstone. Made famous by Lennon and McCartney. We then walked around the church yard to see all the lonely people. A very nice church and yard.

The Cathedral was only completed in 1978. It was designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott when he was only 22 years old.
