Liverpool, England L17 1AP
Please check our website before travel for private hire closures or special timings. Sefton Park’s ‘Great Conservatory’ was a gift to the city of Liverpool by local benefactor Henry Yates Thompson. When it first opened to the public in 1896 it quickly became a popular visitor attraction. People who had never set foot outside of Liverpool could stroll under its glass domes and marvel at exotic plants from far-away lands. Some of those plants are still thriving here today despite the Palm House falling into a state of dereliction in the 1990s. After a public campaign and multi-million pound restoration, this Grade 2* listed building re-opened its doors to visitors in 2001 and has since enjoyed a new lease of life as a lively arts and cultural venue.
