St James Gardens
Explore a Late Georgian / Victorian Cemetery in a light-hearted tour as you learn about the social history of Liverpool and the lives of some of the leading industrialists and forward-thinkers of the time.
Hear how the murder of an American sea captain caused a diplomatic incident at a time before the American Civil War.
Learn about some of Liverpool's slave traders who are buried in the cemetery. Charles Goore is perhaps one of the most infamous who was known for his ruthlessness when transporting slaves across the Atlantic. Learn also about George Drinkwater - a slave owner who lived at number 65 Rodney Street.
Sir William Brown made his fortune as a cotton trader and eventually went into merchant banking, founding Brown and Shipley, a company that still exists today. Brown also funded the construction of the magnificent Library to the tune of £40,000 (£4 Million in today's money)
William Huskisson is the most famous resident in the cemetery and the first railway casualty.
