of WW2 Damage to Liverpool taken in 1944

The excellent panorama at left is the copyright of the © National Museums Liverpool, Merseyside Maritime Museum. The photograph was taken by Stewart Bale and shows the extent to which Liverpool was destroyed in war-time bomb attacks... "Were it not for the royal landmark in the centre - still a meeting place to this day, fronting the city’s law courts - Devastation Around The Victoria Monument (1944) would be utterly unrecognisable."
