On Monday I ventured into Liverpool - en route to the city centre we drove down Edge Lane. Row upon row of derelict houses on both sides of the street have been boarded up and painted, featuring images of The Beatles, TATE Liverpool and Ricky Tomlinson. This was a bid to 'tart up' not 'tin up' the derelict areas of the city, despite plans to knock them down to make way for a new, and wider main road into the city. I quite liked the idea of the visual contrast, displaying the derelict with an injection of life.
