Stately Homes of Liverpool – Ken Pye

Croxteth Hall
Knowsley Hall

Ken Pye, a historian of all things Liverpool has given several presentations to our Society. In his talk on 24th February Ken described the history of some of the Stately Homes of Liverpool, the aristocrats who once owned much of the Liverpool and Merseyside area and some who still do! In particular, he talked about those great houses that still survive and are accessible to the public.

Ken described the history of Knowsley Hall, Speke Hall and Croxteth Hall and we were all amazed and intrigued by some of the revelations surrounding these grand houses. Ken’s light hearted delivery conveyed his affection for Liverpool and its inhabitants. A most interesting and entertaining talk.
