Liverpool is a city and port in Merseyside, England, which contains many listed buildings. A listed building is a structure designated by English Heritage of being of architectural and/or of historical importance and, as such, is included in the National Heritage List for England. There are three grades of listing, according to the degree of importance of the structure. Grade I includes those buildings that are of "exceptional interest, sometimes considered to be internationally important"; the buildings in Grade II* are "particularly important buildings of more than special interest"; and those in Grade II are "nationally important and of special interest". Very few buildings are included in Grade I — only 2.5% of the total. Grade II* buildings represent 5.5% of the total, while the great majority, 92%, are included in Grade II. [1]
Liverpool contains more than 1,550 listed buildings, of which 28 are in Grade I, 109 in Grade II*, and the rest in Grade II. [lower-alpha 1] This list contains the Grade II listed buildings in the L18 postal district of Liverpool. The district lies to the south of the city centre, forming a suburb of the city. It is mainly residential and contains houses of all types, from the former mansions of prosperous businessmen, through suburban middle-class housing, to terraces for workmen. Within the district is Calderstones Park.

The town contains 23 buildings that are recorded in the National Heritage List for England as designated listed buildings.
