No Joe, we're talking about St John and St James church in Monfa Road, Orrell, where my mum and dad were married and I was christened. Not Bootle cathedral. :D

Do you mind me nicking this photo Ged?

I can't see another church on that photo, mind, you I can only see out of one eye but that's another story. :wink:
Joe, the direction of the background would not have shown Walton prison. JJC.

Great picture, I would say that is from the late 40s or early 50s.
