About this audio guide
This guide to the Everton Lock-up in Liverpool opens with a question about a football shirt and a small round stone building from the seventeen-eighties. It follows the parish constables, drunks and troublemakers who spent nights inside, the nicknames locals gave the place, and the Royalist prince whose name it borrowed from a siege fought long before it was built. Best heard standing right beside the tower.
