Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone had any inofrmation about the building were Wirral Gymnastics Club is now located. It's on Church Street, opposite the Police station in Birkenhead?? I have been told the building used to be a pie factory, but I would be really inerested in finding out any other information about it please?

Many thanks
Maisie

A pie factory seems compatible with a police station but not a gymnastics club

Wow thank you so much...little bit of history about the gym my daughter goes to!! I'm sure the owners of the gym will be interested in the info from 1916 directory...If anyone has any other information, I'd love to know what it is!!!
Inside the building all the walls are tiled, so that suggests to me it was some sort of factory later on!!
All information is very gratefully appreciated!!!
Thanks
Maisie
