History

• The history of Liverpool can be traced back to
  1190 when the place was known as 'Liuerpul',
  possibly meaning a pool or creek with muddy
  water, though other origins of the name have been
  suggested.
• The borough was founded by royal charter in 1207,
  but Liverpool remained a small settlement until
  its trade with Ireland and coastal parts of
  England and Wales was overtaken by trade with
  Africa and the West Indies, which included the
  slave trade.
• In 1830, the Liverpool and Manchester Railway was
  opened. The population grew rapidly, especially
  with Irish migrants by 1851, one quarter of the
  city's population was Irish-born.

Religion

• The thousands of migrants and sailors passing
  through Liverpool resulted in a religious

  city', with a Catholic population much larger
  than in other parts of England.
