But I'm not sure what you mean there mate, what are you seeing?
Although it's not easy to make it out, if you look at the edited attachment I posted up above, in the orange circle there is a side view of a small liverbird with wings outstretched looking over to the right hand side and perched just above a representation of a nest.
What gets me in a lot of these old photos is that sort of little attention to detail and pride for our city that some of our civic forefathers had back then which seems somewhat lacking these days.
To think someone must have commissioned a foundry to manufacture them with that specific detail on uniquely marking them out as belonging to the city, rather than the sort of anonymous off the shelf things the council would probably get these days.
I suppose it's down to money, though I can't help but think so many of those old cast iron lamp posts would still be perfectly servicable today if they hadn't been torn down and sold off for scrap in the pursuit of urban modernisation or regeneration or whatever words they dress up a lot of cultural vandalism as these days.
It's like the details in the old photo below of the tram stop outside the Adelphi with liverbird finials on the roof on the Liverpool Picturebook site
here that was posted here about 10 years ago.
I wonder did anyone have the foresight when that was torn down to save them rather than throwing them in a skip.
Judging from the relative size of them to the people waiting below, they must have been maybe 45-50cm tall.
