About this audio guide
This guide to the Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool follows a March week in nineteen fifty-four, when the Hollywood cowboy Roy Rogers, his wife Dale Evans and his palomino Trigger checked in after a run at the Empire Theatre, and Rogers took to his bed with flu. It reaches back to the eighteenth-century pleasure garden that once stood here, with its carp pond, evening orchestra and fireworks. Best heard on the pavement across from the hotel, where you can see its upper floors.
