Discover for yourself the haunts of slave traders, privateers
and press-gangs, the hideaway of a suspected assassin and
the desecrated grave of a self-professed Jack the Ripper,
track down the birthplace of rail travel and the oldest

pavilion at a first-class cricket ground, marvel at a life-
size replica of the world’s first submarine and the original

home of the Epsom Derby, be gobsmacked by burial stones
older than Stonehenge and one of the earliest human
settlements to be found anywhere in the UK, take a turn
on John Lennon’s first musical instrument and snigger at
the sight of Queen Victoria’s dildo, meet toads that sing,
World War II’s best-kept secret and the world’s first (and
smallest) skyscraper, toast the UK’s greatest female athlete
in a brew named in her honour or go for a spin on the only
purpose-built F1 race track in the country.
For tourists and locals who have outgrown Hop on–Hop
off bus excursions, river cruises and Beatles tours, Secret
Liverpool - An unusual guide is an indispensable guide to
the curiosities of ‘England’s finest Victorian city’, designed
for people who prefer to customise their own itinerary or
