Liverpool Cathedral falcon netting row rumbles on

Photographs have revealed the controversial netting which Liverpool Anglican Cathedral has put in place to protect part of the building from two peregrine falcons.

RSPB England has criticised the decision to install the netting at the city's Anglican Cathedral, claiming that it 'posed risks to the birds and other wildlife.' The birds have bred successfully in the same spot for three years.
