Bootle Town Hall - a photo on Flickriver

Bootle Town Hall

            Bootle's town hall and other municipal buildings were erected in the last quarter of the 19th century. The population of the town swelled during this period, boosted by Irish immigration and the attraction of plentiful work on the docks. The wealth to pay for the splendour of the town hall and the gentrified 'Bootle Village' area was generated by these docks. The skilled workers lived in terraced houses in the east of the town, while the casual dock labourers lived in cramped, dwellings near the dockside

You Bootle lads and lasses
Just list to what I sing,
In Bootle on Easter Monday,
The joy bells they will ring ;
They'll open Bootle new Town Hall,
And make a grand display,
And celebrate the great event
By a general holliday.

Then all rejoice with heart and voice,
Don't let your spirits fall ;
But cheer the Mayor of Bootle,
When he opens the new Town Hall.
