Although in terrible condition what a great thing it would be if it could be repaired and converted into a Museum for the Liverpool Volunteers and Territorial units ( and most importantly the members of those units who made such great sacrifices ) almost all of which no longer exist.
You could then keep the new Museum at the Pier Head for the touchy feely displays that Museums nowadays seem to favour.
