A tranquil sunken garden in a former cemetery beside Liverpool Cathedral, sheltered by sandstone cliffs. Green, still and atmospheric, with birdsong and a strong sense of seclusion. Note access is via steep, sloping paths and the ground is uneven, so it is not step-free. Free and open year-round. A calming, contemplative hidden space.
