Top 10 Free Things To Do and Attractions in Golborne

"Located on the Mersey River, where the river meets the Irish Sea, the first ever commercial dock was built in Liverpool in 1715. The Albert Dock was completed in 1846 and by the late 19th century, 40 per cent of the world’s trade was passing through. Given the part that it played in the city’s history, it makes sense to start your visit to Liverpool at the world famous Royal Albert Dock."

"One of Liverpool’s most aesthetically pleasing attractions, Albert Dock should be right at the top of any visitor’s list. Not only is the dock a UNESCO World Heritage site waterfront, it also houses the largest collection of Grade I-listed buildings in the country. A number of Liverpool’s most popular attractions can be found here."

"As Britain’s largest cathedral and the fifth largest in the whole of Europe, Liverpool’s Cathedral is nothing short of impressive.

"When the Princes Dock tower is completed, it will slot into third in the list of Liverpool’s tallest structures, which is currently occupied by the Liverpool Cathedral. The Anglican Cathedral stands at 101 metres tall (331ft) - thanks to its beautiful bell tower, which visitors can go up and take in a stunning view of the city."

"One of the oldest buildings in Manchester, the Cathedral has a vast and extensive history that can be traced back to humble beginnings in the 7th century, becoming a Cathedral in 1847. Having survived significant damage during both World War II and the IRA bomb, the Cathedral has undergone extensive refurbishment several times over the past century, creating a lovingly preserved building that appears much more modern than it actually is. The Cathedral is open to the public, who can admire the architecture and numerous little quirks inside, including the misericord wood carvings and bees on the roof."

"Standing proud since 1421 when Henry V signed a royal charter granting permission for a collegiate church to be built, the iconic Manchester Cathedral has survived world wars, bombings and the industrial revolution first hand. Admire the beautiful stained glass windows and carved ceilings as you wander around the building and listen to the sound of choristers and jazz that is often playing. If you want to learn more about the building there are guided tours every day at 11 am and 2 pm Monday to Saturday."
