Geocache Description:

small, no pencil. tweezers may be needed


William Henry Quilliam (10 April 1856 Liverpool – 23 April 1932 London), who changed his name to Abdullah Quilliam and later Henri Marcel Leon or Haroun Mustapha Leon, was a 19th century convert from Christianity to Islam noted for founding England's first Mosque and Islamic centre. This was based at No. 8 Brougham Terrace, Kensington, Liverpool. Unfortunately after the charismatic leader left lthe mosque and the country, his followers left and the Mosque fell into disrepair. Liverpool council currently have plans to refurbish this building to acknowledge its unique past

The Mosque is next door to West Derby Union Buildings which later became Brougham Terrace Registry office at which, amongst others, Richard Starkey Aka Ringo Starr was married.

There is also nearby, the remains, of a very grand drinking fountain about which I have been unable to find any information and would be grateful for any information cachers may have about this fountain.

There is parking in a side road alongside Brougham Terrace and there is a very active garage nearby so please take care while looking for the cache
