Liverpool is a ghost town in DeSoto County, Florida, United States on the Peace River.
Liverpool was most likely chosen because it was on the Peace River, which provided a way that mined phosphate could be transported to Charlotte Harbor.
The town in its heyday had docks along the river, post office, hotel, newspaper and a stage shop.
After this, John Cross decided to buy and develop land in Charlotte County.
The railroad was soon extended further south to Punta Gorda and Boca Grande, making its decline much faster and commerce was starting to shift to Fort Ogden and by the 1920s it was completely gone.
