The 'Beginnings of a Noble Pile': Liverpool Cathedral's Lady Chapel (1904-10)

摘要

Liverpool Cathedral's Lady Chapel was the first portion to be constructed of a building project which took until the end of the 1970s to complete. Often overshadowed by the later work, this comparatively small building has perhaps not been adequately documented and assessed as a work in its own right. Moreover, in the case of this portion of the cathedral, two architects were involved, and so an attempt to assess the extent of each person's contribution is a necessary endeavour in any study of this building, but has not previously been undertaken in this case.
