Taken on 19 Aug 2023, this photograph shows Modern conical Roman Catholic, Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral 1967, Mount Pleasant, , Merseyside, England, UK, L3 5TQ. The location is Mount Pleasant, Liverpool, Merseyside, England, UK, L3 5TQ. The picture is not just a record shot: it contains architectural or decorative detail with strong colour, lettering and religious, civic or commemorative symbolism. Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King was consecrated in 1967 to designs by Frederick Gibberd, and its centralised modernist form has become one of the city’s most distinctive landmarks. Its national importance was underlined when the cathedral’s listed status was upgraded to Grade I in 2025, strengthening the image’s relevance for architecture, faith and heritage features. It can support articles on architecture, faith, heritage conservation, public art, tourism, local identity and the way historic or modern buildings remain active in daily city life. For image buyers, the value is in the combination of recognisable subject, readable wording, location evidence and a plain documentary style that can be dropped into news, magazine, web, council, housing, transport, heritage or commercial commentary without looking over-produced. Searchable related phrases include religion, religious, conical, Mount Pleasant, Metropolitan Cathedral, Roman Catholic, stained, glass, panel, Liverpool, Merseyside, history, plus wider ideas such as local identity, public realm, urban detail, social history, commercial change, everyday Britain, documentary photography and place-based storytelling. The composition gives designers scope for captions, page furniture, social media crops, report covers and article thumbnails, while the detailed captioning makes it more discoverable for searches using both specific place names and broader themes.
