Childwall Abbey Hotel

We stayed in a very interesting Hotel last night. One of Marston's called the Childwall Abbey Hotel, in Childwall, Liverpool.

I was there to Photograph the Pub / Hotel for their web site. I have to say it was a lovely pub and really busy in the evenings. They had a Neil Diamond covers singer on the night we stayed, he was very good. I like a bit of Neil Diamond.

"The Childwall Abbey Inn has been known by this name for at least a Century. After delving in to many records and documents, I have come to the conclusion that it is really a renovated Chapel, probably the Chapel of St Thomas the Martyr. which is known as far back as 1484. Quoted from http://www.childwall.info/childwall-abbey/4576503187.

The Church oposite, All Saints Church, is mentioned in the Doomsday Book. Legend has it that the hotel is haunted. I must admit I had my own little experience while staying there myself. Lovely Pub & Hotel. Great atmosphere.
