Comment
The Liverpool Royal Institution, though established in 1814, did not formally open on Colquitt street until 1817 and it was 1821 before it received its royal charter. The Institution awarded prize medals to students and financed the Royal Institution Grammar School for boys. The Institution was dissolved in 1948.
