As Liverpool's 800th birthday approaches (celebrations are taking place on 26-28th August), the Liverpool Echo has invited high school pupils from across the city to reflect on Liverpool's eight centuries of history.
Here, pupils from De La Salle College in Croxteth take a look at how the River Mersey helped Liverpool to grow from a tiny Hamlet to a major city.
Not to be outdone, over at the Daily Post you can watch rare footage of how the city celebrated its 700th birthday back in 1907.
