Canning and Toxteth Gardens

A wide range of city gardens from the grandeur of the Georgian terraces, to the restored Toxteth Victorian streets. They now inc Granby Winter Garden and an innovative back alley garden recently featured on Gardeners' World. The winter garden was created out of two derelict houses, in an area being beautifully regenerated thanks to the efforts of the local residents. They join a well planted private garden behind one of Liverpool’s grand Georgian terrace houses, and the unusual classically designed Spanish garden of St Philip Neri church. El Jardin de la Nuestra Senora was created on a bomb site after WW2. The church’s exquisite Byzantine interior, designed by PS Gilby, will also be open. In contrast to the Georgian Quarter classicism are the vibrant Grapes Community Food Garden and Squash cafe garden in Windsor Street, plus the Wellbeing garden of the Liverpool Pakistan Association. It is a fascinating group, all within the historic heart of Liverpool, with many architecturally important buildings. These inc Liverpool’s Anglican cathedral, the largest cathedral and religious building in Europe.
