On Monday 19 January 2026, we met in the Holiday Inn on Lime Street, looking across to the station and surrounding buildings. The windows offered broad city views as well as close studies of arches, clocks and rooftops.

Liverpool Lime Street station opened on 15 August 1836. Its train-shed arches and neighbouring buildings remain a familiar part of the view from our meeting place.
