Bird iconic identifier of Liverpool on top of edifice (7)

I haven't cracked this one yet — but the brilliant team at Fifteensquared have:

RED KIT (identifier of Liverpool Football Club, who play in an all-red strip) + first letter (top, in a down clue) of E [difice]. A bird of prey. The surface suggests the Liver Bird, an iconic symbol of Liverpool, two of which appear on top of the Royal Liver Building – but that’s more like a cormorant than a red kite.
