English: Picton Library, William Brown Street, Liverpool. The Picton Reading Room, named after Sir James Picton, chairman of the Libraries and Museums Committee was designed by Sherlock and built between 1875-9. The semi-circular façade surrounded by detached Corinthian columns and with its domed roof, was intended to echo Greek and Roman temples but to the Victorian Liverpudlians it became known as Picton's Gasometer.
