St Luke's Bombed Out Church

The ruins of the former 19th century Anglican St Luke's Church are now better known as "the Bombed Out Church".
It was badly damaged in bombing raids during the Blitz in 1941 and is left without a roof.
The ruins now serve as a memorial and memorial to the people who lost their lives during the war.

"The church was built between 1811 and 1832, and was designed by John Foster, Sr. and John Foster, Jr., father and son who were successive surveyors for the Corporation of Liverpool. In addition to being a parish church, it was also intended to be used as a venue for ceremonial worship and as a concert hall. The church was badly damaged by bombs during the Liverpool Blitz in 1941 and has been a roofless shell ever since, giving rise to its nickname. It now stands as a memorial to those who died in the war, and has also been hired as a venue for exhibitions and events. The church and its surrounding walls, gates, and railings are recorded in the National Heritage List for England as designated Grade II* listed buildings.  The site for the church was given by Edward Smith-Stanley, 12th Earl of Derby in 1791 on the condition that the land should never be used for any other purpose than that of a church."
