From the Wikipedia article

Galkoff's was a kosher butcher shop in Liverpool during the early and mid-20th century. Its location at 29 Pembroke Place, Liverpool L3 was at the then heart of the Jewish community in the city. Whilst the shop ceased trading in 1979 and the site is now derelict, the site was Grade II listed in April 2007 in recognition of its significance to Liverpool's Jewish community and for the elegance of its tiled exterior. The building is further protected by a hoarding which has a mural, designed by local artist Donna Berry and executed by the children of King David School, depicting scenes of the life of Liverpool's Jewish community.
