'''Liverpool''' is a city in north-west [[England]].  It was a minor port town of [[Lancashire]] awarded a borough charter by King [[John]] in 1208, but in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries Liverpool developed into a major global city. This prominence was based largely on trade, including [[tobacco]], [[sugar]] and a major involvement in the [[Slave Trade]]. Although the slave trade was abolished in the [[British Empire]] in 1806, Liverpool continued to flourish as an industrial, trade and financial industries centre. Liverpool has the largest number of listed buildings outside of [[London]],and more notable Georgian buildings than [[Bath]]. The Liverpool waterfront is a [[UNESCO]] [[World Heritage Site]] and contains three important buildings known as the "three Graces" - the'' Royal Liver'' building, the ''Cunard'' building and the ''Port of Liverpool'' building.
