This grand landmark proudly stands at the Pier Head, adjacent to the Mersey Ferries entrance. Opened in 1911, it is still the head office for the Royal Liver Friendly Society and home to the well-loved Liver Birds that loom high above the city streets. The birds - a mythical interpretation of the cormorant - are eighteen foot high and made of copper. A local legend says that the city would be submerged under water if the birds ever flew away, oh yes and Elvis is still alive. The building is also distinguished by two towers adorned with the largest public striking clocks in Britain. Tours can be arranged by contacting the building manager. Admission: free . Tours are by appointment only
