Sophienburg estate Liverpool



RUINS of a long lost Georgian estate once owned by prominent figures from Liverpool’s history have been discovered but an archaeologist is now needed to uncover the story behind the enigmatic site.

The remnants of Sophienburg estate were found last year by the City of Liverpool and District Historical Society’s president Glen op den Brouw.

Working on a hunch about where the estate would have lain, the Liverpool resident was walking through dense bushland in Casula when he stumbled upon several stone pieces.
