.....so Goodison Rd is on the left of the picture. Not sure when the Church was built but there can't be many views of that corner of the ground without it on.

1899: The foundation stone of the church was laid in by the first Bishop of Liverpool, Bishop Charles Ryle.

1901: The Church was consecrated.

1906: The Memorial Chapel was dedicated

1907: The St Luke’s Mothers’ Union was formed

1908: The foundation stone for the Parish Hall was laid

1912 The completion of the Parish Hall.


something that always makes me chuckle when I do the weather check on bbc website is the location, and its repeated on the church website

St Luke The Evangelist, Walton on the Hill


I FOUND MY THRILL... in Walton on the Hill !!

.....cheers, Reidy, so that view of Goodison was 7 years or so before the foundation stone of the church was laid.
 
I find it strange that they decided to build a church so close to a football ground unless the footprint of the ground has changed since that 1892 image. I'm not a church goer more of an atheist but the proximity of the church to the ground is one of the things I'd miss if we relocated it brings a sense of uniqueness to the ground
