Description

Stroll through the University of Liverpool Campus in real-time with your local Liverpool Blue Badge tour guide. The tour will be interactive, and depending on the subjects you plan to study, we can look at the buildings for the various departments in this walking tour. The University was established in 1881 and is one of the six original "Red Brick Universities". It is highly sought after, with three faculties, 35 departments, and 230 first-degree courses. In 2006, this was the first UK university to establish an independent university in China. Ten Nobel Peace Prizes have been awarded to the students of the University. 

We will show you around and tell you more about all the facilities on campus for students, how you can get around on foot and bike, the local shops, the student guild, coffee shops, pubs and other social activities. Primarily focused on the Georgian Quarter of the vibrant city of Liverpool, this tour will give you a sense of how safe it is to study here, and as your guides, we will bring to life what it's like to live here. 

University of Liverpool Students study in the city centre and live out for the first year in the newly built Student Halls of Residence close to Penny Lane. Whilst we cannot include a virtual tour of the Halls on this tour, we can help by answering any questions you may have about it.

We look forward to meeting you on this tour of the University of Liverpool.

Meet your Host

Neil & Claire

Neil McDonald and Claire Rider are both Liverpool Blue Badge Tourist Guides who have been running the original Liverpool Beatles Walk every day for the last 7 years. Neil was the Head of Customer Service for a telecommunications company and Claire was a Marketing Manager. However, they both discovered their real vocation and each other when they trained together for two years as tour guides in 2013. Neil & Claire both know the owners of the Cavern Club really well, they speak regularly to Roag Best and take guests to his family home 'The Casbah'. Many other Beatles legends are still around on Penny Lane and they know the original Quarry-men, Beatles authors, and even John Lennon's half-sister. Everyone in Liverpool works extremely hard to keep the story real. They are both licensed driver/guides with a beautiful V-Class Mercedes and are usually busy showing guests all around the UK on luxury multi-day tours. They love their jobs and will really help you put all the Beatles locations into context. Claire is often singing and extremely theatrical, and Neil knows an absolute wealth of interesting facts. Neil was once guiding visitors around the corner on a Beatles Tour and there was Paul McCartney who even agreed to have his photo taken with the clients!

Open days FAQ's

Why go to an open day at university of liverpool.

Considering studying at University of Liverpool? Come and check out the uni on an open day. Attending an open day is the best way to get all your burning questions answered. As well as getting answers to all your questions, you'll get a chance to check out the local area, see the learning facilities and join the campus tours going on throughout the day. Open days offer invaluable insight into the courses you're interested in to help you make the right decision when you apply to university. Make sure to register for your place on an open day at University of Liverpool.

What can you expect on the day?

On open days at University of Liverpool, you'll find a packed schedule, so be sure to plan your day carefully. You'll be able to take part in tours, meet some of the tutors and get all your questions answered. Open days also offer an insight into the facilities the university has to offer, from the library to teaching rooms to IT facilities. Throughout the day there'll be chances for more informal conversations, with staff from various departments on hand to answer your queries. These informal conversations are ideal for getting a better feel for life at University of Liverpool.

What questions should you ask at a university open day?

In short, anything and everything you want answered. You'll be able to speak to staff from different departments of University of Liverpool. Think of the different areas of student life you have questions about and make a note of all your questions before you visit. Some popular topics for questions asked at open days are the different modules on your course, the local area, nightlife, and how students socialise. Everyone you meet at the open day will be more than happy to help, no matter how small your question is (or even if you think it's a silly question). If you've got more niche or technical questions you might have to direct them to the relevant team at University of Liverpool or pop them in an email to be addressed properly.

What if you can't attend a university open day?

Not everyone will be able to attend one of the open days on offer at University of Liverpool, so there's plenty of other ways to find the information you need before making your decision. While everyone is now moving away from virtual open days, there's plenty of information online. On the University of Liverpool website, you'll find answers to a lot of your questions including details about the campus, course, and student life. The email addresses for all the different departments are also available online if you need to ask any specific questions. And of course, open days aren't always the only chance to visit the campus. You could always reach out to the uni and ask whether you can attend on a different day that suits you to do a tour of the uni and its facilities.

Sculpture walking tour.

Go on a trail across University of Liverpool’s campus to discover a wide range of sculpture from the University’s art and heritage collection.

Download the 'Sculpture Trail' app - brand new for 2022!

Download our 'Sculpture Trail' app on your Apple or Android devices and use GPS to navigate your way across campus to find each of our outdoor sculptures.

The app highlights the locations of 14 sculptures, ranging from figurative pieces, through bold typography and abstract installations.

All the sculptures are displayed outside and can be viewed by following the app’s route around campus. The app shows a photograph of each sculpture, accompanied by textual information and an audio description.

I don't have a smartphone

If you don't have a smartphone or tablet you can also access our Sculpture Walking Tour in other ways! We have a campus map below that you can follow or you can ask for a paper map from our Visitor Services team at the VG&M.

Follow the campus map

Smartphones and tablets not for you? Don't worry - we also have the campus map version for you to follow below. The VG&M building icon will always be on the snippet view map above each sculpture so that you can orientate yourself and follow the trail. A full map of campus will be at the bottom of this page.

We begin in the quadrangle behind the VG&M with our first sculpture on the Ashton Building...

Figures, 1912 - 1914 By William Birnie Rhind (1852 – 1933)

Our next sculpture is also in the quadrangle, just beyond the grass between the johnston and george holt buildings..

Red Between, 1971 - 1973 By Philip King (1934 -2021 )

We now move to the left of the red between and across to map reference c8.

Shemaiah, c.1985 By Sean Rice (1931 – 1997)

Walking down the road and in the same reference square is our next location on the side of the brodie tower building (look up).

Lettering, 1960

By maxwell fry obe (1899 – 1987).

The names of famous engineers are displayed in pre-cast concrete on a curved wall for added impact. Maxwell Fry is regarded as the father of the Modern movement in architecture in Britain and he believed that buildings should be carefully matched to their environment. Born in Wallasey, Fry studied at the University’s School of Architecture.   

Turn around and go through the archway between the Thompson Yates and Whelan Buildings

Front Runner                                                        

By Elisabeth Frink,  1987

Map Reference C8

Elisabeth Frink studied at the Guildford School of Art (1946-1947) and the Chelsea School of Art (1949-1953). She was created a Dame of the British Empire in 1982. She describes this work as a tribute to human rights and that the figure is a man running away from persecution.

Come back through the archway and walk back towards the VG&M and stop by the archway between the Ashton Building and the George Holt Building. Look up and you will see a pair of sphinxes.

Sphinxes William Birnie Rhind (1853 – 1933)

Although hundreds of people walk through this archway every day, not many look up to see the pair of sphinxes perched on top. Mythical creatures with a human head and a lion’s body, they appear in several classical civilizations including ancient Egypt where they usually represent protection from evil. 

Go through the archway and you will see the Harold Cohen Library on the other side of the archway, once again look up over the entrance to the library, map reference D8.

Learning, 1938 By Eric Kennington (1888 – 1960)

You are now heading for the next sculpture in west derby street, between the william henry duncan and ronald ross buildings (ref f9)..

Form A, 2017 By Susan Forsyth (1961 - )

Pass the sculpture and go between the ronald ross and william henry duncan buildings and head towards university square and the road that divides the university of livepool student guild and mathematcs building (map ref e6)..

Open Metal Gatework & Screen, 1961 By John McCarthy

Walk between the maths building and the careers hub (on university square) and head over to the outside of the central teaching hub and look at the outside of the building. .

Abstract Frieze, c.1965 Sculptor Frederick Bushe OBE (1931 – 2009)

Go down the side of this building and just outside the central teaching labs is our next sculpture, opposite the chadwick building..

Three Uprights, 1959

By Hubert Dalwood (1924 – 1976)

Map Ref F5/6

The three forms can be seen as three talking figures. The artist considered two forms would have been too few and four too many. Dalwood won a competition to design this piece, which is cast in aluminium.  He was one of the leading British artists of his time and taught at several institutions including the Royal College of Art. This piece was installed in 1959, the year Dalwood won the John Moores prize with Large Object.
