Prince Rupert’s Tower has been graffitied with an apparent reference to Liverpool’s European success
Evertonians were outraged to discover the ruination of a club symbol and blasted the ‘mindless’ people responsible.The ancient building on Everton Brow, which dates back to 1787, was originally a lock-up where local drunks and criminals were taken by parish constables.A depiction of the Grade II-listed building has appeared on the Toffees crest since 1938. It is deeply interwoven in the club’s history and, in 2003, a plaque was added to the building stating the importance of its sporting association.In 1997, Everton gave 15,000 to help renovate the structure and, in 2014, it was permanently illuminated blue.The tower’s name is thought to originate from the English Civil War Siege of Liverpool in 1644.While the building was erected 143 years after the battle, Everton Brow was where Prince Rupert and his Royalist army camped to prepare for the attack on the Parliamentariangarrison holdingLiverpool Castle, which fell after a week of heavy fighting and the loss of 1,500 of his men.
