A talk from local author and poet Sue Gerrard looking at the stories behind a selection of buildings in the borough of St Helens

It is said that you can get to know a place by its interesting buildings. This is certainly true of St. Helens. Our buildings trace St. Helens from four rural villages to an industrial giant, representing the industrial heritage, its role in the transport revolution as well it's future role.

This one-hour illustrated talk takes a selection of buildings from Sue's new book 'St. Helens in 50 Buildings', and features buildings across St Helens, including Earlestown and Newton-le-Willows, such as theatres, churches, pubs, and schools.  

Sue Gerrard is a multi-award winning author of multiple poetry collections, novellas and non-fiction books such as 'Secret St Helens' and 'The A-Z of St Helens'.
