Coach visit: Liverpool

A guided tour of the Lutyens Crypt at the Metropolitan Cathedral described by John Summerson as 'perhaps ...the latest and supreme attempt to embrace Rome, Byzantium, the Romanesque the Renaissance in one triumphal and triumphant synthesis.’

An introductory talk by Matthew Clough, Director of the University Collection, now housed in one of Alfred Waterhouse's archetypal Gothic offerings.  The interior of the Victoria Museum and Art Gallery is worth a visit, even without its wonderful exhibits.
