They record changes in the landscape, like long-gone roads or new areas of houses for a growing population. Some show a familiar Liverpool, but look closer and you’ll see all kinds of details that you may have missed. I recommend looking at some places you know well, such as the parks and streets you knew as a child.

It looks like several decades of development around Edge Hill. The whole shape of Sefton Park was undefined in 1895, but by 1898, the familiar kidney shape is there, and all the rows of housing are in place down Smithdown Road. Which is strange, as I know my road was not built until 1903, yet it appears to be on the 1898 map. I have a 1765 map, and one that appears to even older, as it has the Castle on it.</p> 1330 1331 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2085" data-commentid="2085" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2085" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Paul O'Donnell" aria-label="Reply to Paul O'Donnell">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 1332 </div><!-- card --> 1333 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 1334 1335 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 1336 </li><!-- #comment --> 1337 1338 <ul class="children"> 1339 1340 <li id="comment-2087" class="comment byuser comment-author-martin bypostauthor odd alt depth-2 parent"> 1341 1342 <article id="div-comment-2087" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 1343 1344 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 1345 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fcc6543b3b95cb2ce4cbfb04bd48cc483fa5bdf2da2823f4dd8a2f2b5d949660?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fcc6543b3b95cb2ce4cbfb04bd48cc483fa5bdf2da2823f4dd8a2f2b5d949660?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 1346 </div> 1347 1348 <div class="comment-content"> 1349 <div class="card"> 1350 <div class="card-body"> 1351 1352 <h3 class="h5"><a target='_blank' href="http://liverpool-landscapes.net" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">Martin Greaney</a></h3> 1353 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 1354 <time datetime="2012-05-01T12:09:31+00:00"> 1355 May 1, 2012 at 12:09 pm </time> 1356 </p> 1357 1358 1359 1360 <p>Hi Paul,</p> 1361<p>Thanks for your comments. Yes, the ingenuity, not to mention the work rate, of the Victorians never ceases to amaze me. I think the fact that Edge Hill is around a station just spurred them on even more at the height of the Industrial Revolution, when Liverpool wanted to be <em>the</em> transport hub of Britain.</p> 1362<p>As to the discrepancy between the date when your road was built, this could either be because my publication date is slightly out, or that the mapmaker knew what was being built in that area, and/or that the record for when your road was built counts the date at which all buildings were complete, increasing the chances that the mapmaker could see the new road plans several years before, perhaps when they’re being laid out.</p> 1363<p>I’ve seen some history books from the period which take great pleasure in detailing all the soon-to-be-built roads, and mapmakers were keen to be at the cutting edge, sometimes risking looking foolish if building projects didn’t come to fruition.</p> 1364<p>Hope you enjoy the site!</p> 1365<p>Regards,<br /> 1366Martin</p> 1367 1368 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2087" data-commentid="2087" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2087" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Martin Greaney" aria-label="Reply to Martin Greaney">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 1369 </div><!-- card --> 1370 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 1371 1372 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 1373 </li><!-- #comment --> 1374 1375 <ul class="children"> 1376

On the OS map of 1882 the area is still fields (brick fields) but a couple of roads nearby have been built, south of Lambeth Road, so it’s easy to say that the area was being built up at that time. So Reading Street was built between 1882 and 1885.</p> 1433<p>Martin</p> 1434 1435 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2155" data-commentid="2155" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2155" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Martin Greaney" aria-label="Reply to Martin Greaney">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 1436 </div><!-- card --> 1437 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 1438 1439 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 1440 </li><!-- #comment --> 1441 1442 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 1443

Maybe in the University archive or the Chambers Hardman archive Rodney street, or it is starring us right in the face mislabeled. The is a view of Myrtle street from heath street, so why not Heath street as well.<br /> 1666It all just fascinates me over a span of ten/ fifteen years how Myrtle street could change from a thriving high street, to a scene of pure devastation.<br /> 1667I do understand about failed schemes but to abandon such an area of so many fine elegant Georgian terraces and you come to realise the are less than a quarter of what was still there in the early fifties is truly heartbreaking.<br /> 1668One of the worst examples of this is the vandalism shown to Bedford street south/north . The beautiful Georgian terrace chopped in half by that hideous Rathbone building.<br /> 1669How much we had and how much we lost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p> 1670 1671 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2283" data-commentid="2283" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2283" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Kevin Davies" aria-label="Reply to Kevin Davies">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 1672 </div><!-- card --> 1673 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 1674 1675 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 1676 </li><!-- #comment --> 1677 1678 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 1679 1680 <li id="comment-2291" class="comment odd alt depth-4 parent"> 1681 1682 <article id="div-comment-2291" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 1683 1684 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 1685 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/51e3649a9aa007ce7697bdf9dec730646a2fc2447db320b0df5f96eac38d7150?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/51e3649a9aa007ce7697bdf9dec730646a2fc2447db320b0df5f96eac38d7150?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 1686 </div> 1687 1688 <div class="comment-content"> 1689 <div class="card"> 1690 <div class="card-body"> 1691 1692 <h3 class="h5">Tracy Reppion</h3> 1693 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 1694 <time datetime="2021-04-27T19:30:19+00:00"> 1695 April 27, 2021 at 7:30 pm </time> 1696 </p> 1697 1698 1699 1700 <p>Hi Martin, this site is fascinating!

As you say, it is really great. Incredibly helpful. Would you happen to know which of those houses which sadly disappeared (I do not know if a result of the blitz or the University planners) was number 74? That is, 74 Bedford Street. That is the address where, according to Wikipedia, the actress Mary Lawson and her husband were staying at the beginning of May 1941, when they were both killed in the bombing. I think it is very sad that there is not even a small sign or notice remembering her.<br /> 1773Many thanks<br /> 1774David</p> 1775 1776 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2322" data-commentid="2322" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2322" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to David Hojman" aria-label="Reply to David Hojman">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 1777 </div><!-- card --> 1778 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 1779 1780 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 1781 </li><!-- #comment --> 1782 1783 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 1784</ul><!-- .children --> 1785</li><!-- #comment-## --> 1786

Thanks also for the link to Kirkdale Online and the Map, thankfully there are still a couple of photos remaining so that we can see what it once looked like. Strange that so many good homes were demolished, the house that my grandparents lived in, 40 Grosvenor Road, New Brighton, is still standing. My grandmother was Eveline Dickinson, from what I have been able to find out so far, she lived in Medlock Street during the 1901 Census, but has moved to New Brighton some time between 1901 and the next Census in 1911. She married my grandfather William Charles Hunt in 1919. He was also a ships steward and from what I can ascertain, he came from Liverpool. Interestingly, I remember my late mother telling me that my grandfather was a steward on the Lancastria when it was torpedoed off the coast of France… having difficulty confirming that though..<br /> 1915Great to hear from you, and I really appreciate the time that you have taken.<br /> 1916Kind regards, Gaye</p> 1917 1918 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2090" data-commentid="2090" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2090" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Gaye Schultz" aria-label="Reply to Gaye Schultz">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 1919 </div><!-- card --> 1920 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 1921 1922 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 1923 </li><!-- #comment --> 1924 1925 <ul class="children"> 1926

Although there was a large timber yard at the western end (on the northern side) the rest of the street was residential. There were two chapels and a school, but the rest were houses with large gardens. The largest houses were actually on Clarence Street, with their side (and back garden) running along Pleasant Street. Some of the gardens are shown in great detail on the map, with paths and flower beds in dotted lines.</p> 2385<p>The houses that actually fronted onto Pleasant Street were smaller, with yards behind. Your own knowledge of your ancestors’ lives may shed more light on what the houses actually looked like.</p> 2386<p>Cubbin Street is no longer with us, but the name lives on in Cubbin Crescent, which sits on the same site in Kirkdale. The street wasn’t built by the time of the first few OS maps, and only appears in 1890. The houses on this street were small terraced houses, slightly smaller than those on Pleasant Street. There are some pictures of <a rel=ânofollowâ href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210731092116/https://www.liverpoolpicturebook.com/p/l4-l5.html" rel="nofollow ugc">Cubbin Street rooms on Liverpool Pictorial</a>. Those photos were taken in 1957, and show the rooms in a shocking state. However, a lot can change in 40 years, so I wouldn’t go assuming those are the conditions your ancestors lived in. However, you do get a very rough impression of the room size.</p> 2387 2388 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2099" data-commentid="2099" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2099" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Martin Greaney" aria-label="Reply to Martin Greaney">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 2389 </div><!-- card --> 2390 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 2391 2392 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 2393 </li><!-- #comment --> 2394 2395 <ul class="children"> 2396

The is a view of Myrtle street from heath street, so why not Heath street as well.<br /> 2651It all just fascinates me over a span of ten/ fifteen years how Myrtle street could change from a thriving high street, to a scene of pure devastation.<br /> 2652I do understand about failed schemes but to abandon such an area of so many fine elegant Georgian terraces and you come to realise the are less than a quarter of what was still there in the early fifties is truly heartbreaking.<br /> 2653One of the worst examples of this is the vandalism shown to Bedford street south/north .

Is there a register of pub landlords that I can browse for that time? Your help would be much appreciated.

It could have changed names before the 1920s, especially if your grandfather took it over from someone else, but that’s the most certain evidence about the pub I can find. Hope this helps!</p> 2720<p>Ad you’re right – the amount of deprivation in this part of Liverpool was shocking. Some of the conditions right into the 1960s and beyond still surprise me.

You can search for Halewood on their home page, and it then gives a selection of old editions on the right. You can see a fair bit on the site, but to get big high quality copies it costs about £16. They have the 1849 edition at 1:10,560 and 1893 at 1:2500 (very high detail, but small areas covered per sheet).</p> 2925<p>When you ask whether I know of any maps which would be ‘better’ than the tithe maps, what is it you’d like to find out? Or are you just after some better copies of the same thing? Lancashire is probably the closest place, as the main other one will be the National Archives in London!</p> 2926<p>Hope this helps a bit, but do let me know more detail if you have some specific queries and I’ll see what I can do.</p> 2927<p>Regards,<br /> 2928Martin</p> 2929 2930 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2110" data-commentid="2110" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2110" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Martin Greaney" aria-label="Reply to Martin Greaney">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 2931 </div><!-- card --> 2932 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 2933 2934 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 2935 </li><!-- #comment --> 2936 2937 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 2938</ul><!-- .children --> 2939</li><!-- #comment-## --> 2940

It might be that your ancestor worked at home, but there was likely not a shop at that address.

They have one from 1955 which marks the Customs House as ‘Ruin’. It also names the streets around that area, although they’re a little hard to see without buying the map. As far as I know, the landscaping of Chevasse Park, which was removed in the last few years to be replaced with Liverpool One, was that landscaping which was put down in place of the Customs House, though if anyone else knows better I’d be glad to hear from them! Coronation Park was further to the East, at the top of Lord Street.</p> 3478<p>Regards,<br /> 3479Martin</p> 3480 3481 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2126" data-commentid="2126" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2126" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Martin Greaney" aria-label="Reply to Martin Greaney">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 3482 </div><!-- card --> 3483 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 3484 3485 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 3486 </li><!-- #comment --> 3487 3488 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 3489</ul><!-- .children --> 3490</li><!-- #comment-## --> 3491

The site of the garden centre seems to have had nothing on it until a number of glasshouses were erected in about 1900, behind the house (belonging to the Buckles?) which stands on the corner of the two roads.

It’s definitely possible that they bought land for the house off the Molyneux family, who were the major landowners in the Sefton area for a long time.</p> 3977<p>Here’s another map for you, showing the road junction in 1927, as well as the house and a couple of the glasshouses (with the cross-hatching):</p> 3978<p><a rel=ânofollowâ href="http://historic-liverpool.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/FieldLaneCopplehouseLane.png" rel="nofollow ugc"><img src="http://historic-liverpool.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/FieldLaneCopplehouseLane.png" /></a></p> 3979 3980 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2141" data-commentid="2141" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2141" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Martin Greaney" aria-label="Reply to Martin Greaney">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 3981 </div><!-- card --> 3982 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 3983 3984 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 3985 </li><!-- #comment --> 3986 3987 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 3988 3989 <li id="comment-2194" class="comment odd alt depth-2 parent"> 3990 3991 <article id="div-comment-2194" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 3992 3993 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 3994 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ce9d5362d75121dbae23d98131646dd2b1ede9bf6e063cbb867b6182eeb3c17d?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ce9d5362d75121dbae23d98131646dd2b1ede9bf6e063cbb867b6182eeb3c17d?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 3995 </div> 3996 3997 <div class="comment-content"> 3998 <div class="card"> 3999 <div class="card-body"> 4000 4001 <h3 class="h5">paul simpson</h3> 4002 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 4003 <time datetime="2017-08-05T22:17:10+00:00"> 4004 August 5, 2017 at 10:17 pm </time> 4005 </p> 4006 4007 4008 4009 <p>Hi, for your information George Buckel is alive and well, and runs/ works at Tal Coed nurseries, in Glan Conwy, North Wales.<br /> 4010Love this site, it is addictive.<br /> 4011Thank you.</p> 4012 4013 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2194" data-commentid="2194" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2194" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to paul simpson" aria-label="Reply to paul simpson">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 4014 </div><!-- card --> 4015 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 4016 4017 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 4018 </li><!-- #comment --> 4019 4020 <ul class="children"> 4021

Another source is the National Archives, though of course they’re in London and so would cost money either to travel there or order copies to be sent to you. You can get a lot of maps online at <a rel=ânofollowâ href="http://old-maps.co.uk" rel="nofollow ugc">http://old-maps.co.uk</a>. It’s a tricky site to navigate sometimes, but a great resource, and makes it easy to view all old OS maps. You need to pay a subscription to zoom right in, but many are perfectly easy to read without zooming in much.</p> 4250<p>Martin</p> 4251 4252 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2148" data-commentid="2148" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2148" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Martin Greaney" aria-label="Reply to Martin Greaney">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 4253 </div><!-- card --> 4254 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 4255 4256 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 4257 </li><!-- #comment --> 4258 4259 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 4260</ul><!-- .children --> 4261</li><!-- #comment-## --> 4262 4263 <li id="comment-2151" class="comment odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1 parent"> 4264 4265 <article id="div-comment-2151" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 4266 4267 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 4268 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/4d2443fc42113826e51618b46858b3bce1aaf5851c19e1ff5fe780b48c8c3237?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/4d2443fc42113826e51618b46858b3bce1aaf5851c19e1ff5fe780b48c8c3237?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 4269 </div> 4270 4271 <div class="comment-content"> 4272 <div class="card"> 4273 <div class="card-body"> 4274 4275 <h3 class="h5">David Wardle</h3> 4276 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 4277 <time datetime="2015-09-20T21:29:18+00:00"> 4278 September 20, 2015 at 9:29 pm </time> 4279 </p> 4280 4281 4282 4283 <p>I am researching the family of my maternal grandmother (Duggan). They lived in the Everton/West Derby area throughout the 19th century – showing Compton Street in 1911. My great grandfather, John Duggan, was born in Liverpool in 1853 and died in Liverpool in 1913.One of his daughters, Catherine, married a French chef (Andre Dutertre) in Leeds, where my mother and I were born. If anyone has any information on the Duggan family I would be very grateful. I recall a family story about a Tommy Duggan who was a professional footballer. The only thing I can find on this is a brief Wikipedia entry which says that he was born in Liverpool in 1897 and emigrated to the USA where he played football. I am not sure whether her was part of the same family, but again, I would be very interested to learn of any information that anyone may have on this. Thank y

There are some smaller buildings at the town end of the street, so presumably that’s where your great grandfather was brought up. It may be that the name Shaw comes from Samuel Shaw, an industrial potter who had his works on the aptly name Shaw’s Brow, which is now William Brown Street (where the Museum and Library are).

The mill house would have been nearby, though again I can’t pinpoint it exactly. The other potential problem is that ‘West Derby’ can refer to a large area of Liverpool, with a lot of mills, so it could refer to another location altogether.

5703don’t know if you found anything about your query but I do know there is a Belle Vale prefab meeting at the Millennium Centre last thursday of the month in normal times (suspended at the moment due to covid restrictions). They have maps of the whole of the prefab estate with lots of photo’s. From my dealings with the Prefab Project the two most likely schools are Joseph Williams (catholic mainly) and Belle Vale CP.</p> 5704 5705 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2265" data-commentid="2265" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2265" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to H.Potter" aria-label="Reply to H.Potter">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 5706 </div><!-- card --> 5707 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 5708 5709 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 5710 </li><!-- #comment --> 5711 5712 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 5713 5714 <li id="comment-2272" class="comment even depth-2"> 5715 5716 <article id="div-comment-2272" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 5717 5718 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 5719 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/68b5831e6ab939cb1ac1d30bd58cf8623cefbd7c3695d81d6d831759d866d42c?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/68b5831e6ab939cb1ac1d30bd58cf8623cefbd7c3695d81d6d831759d866d42c?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 5720 </div> 5721 5722 <div class="comment-content"> 5723 <div class="card"> 5724 <div class="card-body"> 5725 5726 <h3 class="h5">Dave Headey</h3> 5727 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 5728 <time datetime="2021-01-29T17:25:20+00:00"> 5729 January 29, 2021 at 5:25 pm </time> 5730 </p> 5731 5732 5733 5734 <p>Whinhurst was a long road but Joseph Williams was quite near one end of it.

My maternal grandmother cam from Liverpool, with ancestors from Ireland, Cumbria and Scotland. The main family I am researching is the Duggan family. I have a record of John Duggan living at 22 Compton Street, West Derby in 1911, and also his father (also John), who emigrated from Ireland. I wondered if you have any information on the Duggans and of Compton Street. My grandmother used to tell us stories, but she is long passed and I would like to rekindle those memories. I seem to re
6483call that there was a family member who played for Liverpool (or possibly Everton), and also I recall something to do with either the Titanic or the Lusitania. Any information would be very gratefully received.

It was hit in the May 1941 blitz it was reduced almost to a shell, however the outer walls were structurally sound.It was massive, larger than the current St Georges Hall. It was in the shape of a letter H from above with two grand entrances via steps through pillars on top of which was a triangular pedant It was demolished commencing 1947 when Liverpool city planners (in their wisdom) decided it was too expensive to re build. The site remained derelict till the early 60s when Merseyside Police headquarters was built and the area to the side was later landscaped and named after George Chevasse the Army medic who received the Victoria Cross for Gallantry in World War 1. The Police headquarters were rebuilt and Chevasse Park was designated as part of the new Liverpool One retail and office development. The actual site now has the Hilton Hotel on it the only reference to the Historic building being the name..it is now Old Customs House Place a pedestrianised area immediately in front of the hotel.</p> 6648 6649 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2221" data-commentid="2221" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2221" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Bill mccaldon" aria-label="Reply to Bill mccaldon">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 6650 </div><!-- card --> 6651 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 6652 6653 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 6654 </li><!-- #comment --> 6655 6656 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 6657 6658 <li id="comment-2222" class="comment even thread-odd thread-alt depth-1 parent"> 6659 6660 <article id="div-comment-2222" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 6661 6662 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 6663 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c0b4e686992f8534bd890cda82659b4f470cd1e7df65ec855c46988ada0fbe6d?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c0b4e686992f8534bd890cda82659b4f470cd1e7df65ec855c46988ada0fbe6d?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 6664 </div> 6665 6666 <div class="comment-content"> 6667 <div class="card"> 6668 <div class="card-body"> 6669 6670 <h3 class="h5">Vivienne James</h3> 6671 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 6672 <time datetime="2018-09-17T12:57:16+00:00"> 6673 September 17, 2018 at 12:57 pm </time> 6674 </p> 6675 6676 6677 6678 <p>Hi Martin, I’m searching for my father’s parents they had a dairy in Walton in the early 1900s there surname was Raw my fathers name was Arthur Raw he was born in North Yorkshire 1911 but moved to Walton Liverpool when he was a boy still in school, I remember story’s of him delivering milk as a child with a horse and cart but cannot remember his father’s name would love to find out more of their dairy and life at that time in Liverpool, any information would be welcome many thanks Viv James.</p> 6679 6680 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2222" data-commentid="2222" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2222" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Vivienne James" aria-label="Reply to Vivienne James">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 6681 </div><!-- card --> 6682 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 6683 6684 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 6685 </li><!-- #comment --> 6686 6687 <ul class="children"> 6688

I’m looking for one map of Liverpool with street level detail for the period around 1850 to 1880-1890. I have a few other maps of Liverpool in sections for that time, but they are difficult to read, print is too small. Looking for a map that is large enough to read street names, with residences and church names etc. Would appreciate any recommendation you can send my way and thanks in advance.</p> 6746 6747 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2224" data-commentid="2224" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2224" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Greg Lynch" aria-label="Reply to Greg Lynch">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 6748 </div><!-- card --> 6749 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 6750 6751 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 6752 </li><!-- #comment --> 6753 6754 <ul class="children"> 6755

I am very interesting in the background and history of the place. Looking at these maps I can see there was once a Wavertree Station at the end of the road. The apartment block and surrounding houses back onto the railway. Behind the car park for the apartments is a rather large archway, no longer used and fenced off that passes underneath the embankment. I am intrigued as the why the archway existed. There are older terraced houses on the north side of the railway that would have blocked any though traffic such as lorries that may have serviced any ‘Merchant’ activities. Therefore the previous use of the area remains a ‘Mystery’ to me.<br /> 7051In the map 1-1 million, Great Britain, 1933 I can see a large black square indicating there was once a large building on the area. A warehouse or factory perhaps? A merchant of some sort? Many thanks, Walt.</p> 7052 7053 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2233" data-commentid="2233" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2233" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Walt" aria-label="Reply to Walt">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 7054 </div><!-- card --> 7055 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 7056 7057 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 7058 </li><!-- #comment --> 7059 7060 <ul class="children"> 7061

The railway seems to cut this land in two, so perhaps whoever owned it demanded access as a condition of the railway coming through.</p> 7084<p>Best wishes,<br /> 7085Martin</p> 7086 7087 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2237" data-commentid="2237" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2237" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Martin" aria-label="Reply to Martin">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 7088 </div><!-- card --> 7089 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 7090 7091 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 7092 </li><!-- #comment --> 7093 7094 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 7095</ul><!-- .children --> 7096</li><!-- #comment-## --> 7097 7098 <li id="comment-2234" class="comment odd alt thread-even depth-1 parent"> 7099 7100 <article id="div-comment-2234" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 7101 7102 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 7103 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/005e766999cf4ef85d414f300c568f6a0a2e891502bd79e984a9d64b0e4de416?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/005e766999cf4ef85d414f300c568f6a0a2e891502bd79e984a9d64b0e4de416?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 7104 </div> 7105 7106 <div class="comment-content"> 7107 <div class="card"> 7108 <div class="card-body"> 7109 7110 <h3 class="h5"><a target='_blank' href="http://Historic-%20Liverpool.co.uk" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">Christine Harris</a></h3> 7111 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 7112 <time datetime="2019-01-14T12:47:37+00:00"> 7113 January 14, 2019 at 12:47 pm </time> 7114 </p> 7115 7116 7117 7118 <p>Hi, I had a friend who went to a special Resential school in 1970. She said she canât find any information about the school.it was Called (OAKFIELD) a Victorian Large House In (Woolton )Or (Gateacre) Liverpool L25.The street ( (OAKFIELD AVENUE.).It was a Building from 1910 I think,Like Gothic.the old fire places,old staircase.The school for special needs 6 years to 18 or 19 years old.My friend left in 1979. It was demolished and knocked down by (The Liverpool Council.).and other people) Can you help please. (Might be in the Liverpool Echo) She also said that the school was on the Liverpool news in 1970s, but donât know if it was the Echo,about a white Horse came to the school grounds.

However, I’ve found that it was ajoining Carson Street near Roscommon Street in Everton. To find it on this 1890 map, look for Roscommon Street here: <a rel=ânofollowâ href="https://historic-liverpool.co.uk/old-maps-of-liverpool/plan-of-liverpool-north-sheet-1890/#5/45.460/-44.319" rel="ugc">https://historic-liverpool.co.uk/old-maps-of-liverpool/plan-of-liverpool-north-sheet-1890/#5/45.460/-44.319</a>. Carson Street is the one running south from the second ‘O’ in Roscommon, and I think Haddon Street is the one running east of that, north of the U-shaped buildings.</p> 7423<p>Best wishes,<br /> 7424Martin</p> 7425 7426 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2242" data-commentid="2242" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2242" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Martin" aria-label="Reply to Martin">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 7427 </div><!-- card --> 7428 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 7429 7430 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 7431 </li><!-- #comment --> 7432 7433 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 7434</ul><!-- .children --> 7435</li><!-- #comment-## --> 7436 7437 <li id="comment-2243" class="comment odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1"> 7438 7439 <article id="div-comment-2243" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 7440 7441 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 7442 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0725a51bec232b08b1755c4a01b52089fe451be2d9b030ecf56a82e4872cfd5a?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0725a51bec232b08b1755c4a01b52089fe451be2d9b030ecf56a82e4872cfd5a?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 7443 </div> 7444 7445 <div class="comment-content"> 7446 <div class="card"> 7447 <div class="card-body"> 7448 7449 <h3 class="h5">Paul Evans</h3> 7450 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 7451 <time datetime="2019-08-10T19:08:36+00:00"> 7452 August 10, 2019 at 7:08 pm </time> 7453 </p> 7454 7455 7456 7457 <p>I have enjoyed looking at your site and reading some of the interesting posts. Trying hard to find something of the history of the Palatine pub on Dale Street as I’m told my grandfather was the licensee from about 1917 until his death in 1925. His widow went on to become licensee at the Chalk Farm Hotel on Rishton Street which was run by Bents. I was able to track down a couple of photos of Chalk Farm online but haven’t been able to find any pre-War images of the Palatine. I am assuming it was also a Bents Brewery pub but haven’t found anything other than a brief reference to an explosion in the 1970s which led to its demolition – I’ve no idea what was built on the site but am assuming the pub must have been near Rigb
7457ys or the Saddle although I am probably completely wrong.</p> 7458 7459 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2243" data-commentid="2243" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2243" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Paul Evans" aria-label="Reply to Paul Evans">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 7460 </div><!-- card --> 7461 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 7462 7463 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 7464 </li><!-- #comment --> 7465 7466 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 7467 7468 <li id="comment-2244" class="comment even thread-even depth-1 parent"> 7469 7470 <article id="div-comment-2244" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 7471 7472 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 7473 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/49c456a4b3d78b5645e8f34df83e7dd7a8ebc9908bd91fb35c557a1b0b1dec67?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/49c456a4b3d78b5645e8f34df83e7dd7a8ebc9908bd91fb35c557a1b0b1dec67?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 7474 </div> 7475 7476 <div class="comment-content"> 7477 <div class="card"> 7478 <div class="card-body"> 7479 7480 <h3 class="h5">Daniel Garner</h3> 7481 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 7482 <time datetime="2019-09-18T11:09:41+00:00"> 7483 September 18, 2019 at 11:09 am </time> 7484 </p> 7485 7486 7487 7488 <p>Hi I’m after some information, regarding gascoyne street and eaton street, my family had a timber yard called garners in liverpool for ovef a 100 years…in gloucester place…lark lane…and finaly gascoyne street…is there any maps available showing garners on there?

My son Andy just picked up your question.<br /> 7586My father, born early 1900’s was Robert Garner, son of Robert Garner timber merchant. He told stories of delivering planks of wood on his bike as a lad. A family separation (x2) and 1930’s crash left my dad joining the army at the age of 18 and never seeing that side of the family again. I belive the business continued in the hands of cousins.<br /> 7587I do remember seeing a large sign painted on a wall somewhere central on my way home to Edge Hill in 1977.<br />
7588I am ashamed I did not record it. Probably the result of excessive Guinness intake.<br /> 7589Would be interested to know if you think this is the same family.</p> 7590 7591 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2269" data-commentid="2269" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2269" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to David Garner" aria-label="Reply to David Garner">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 7592 </div><!-- card --> 7593 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 7594 7595 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 7596 </li><!-- #comment --> 7597 7598 <ul class="children"> 7599 7600 <li id="comment-2279" class="comment even depth-5"> 7601 7602 <article id="div-comment-2279" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 7603 7604 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 7605 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/49c456a4b3d78b5645e8f34df83e7dd7a8ebc9908bd91fb35c557a1b0b1dec67?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/49c456a4b3d78b5645e8f34df83e7dd7a8ebc9908bd91fb35c557a1b0b1dec67?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 7606 </div> 7607 7608 <div class="comment-content"> 7609 <div class="card"> 7610 <div class="card-body"> 7611 7612 <h3 class="h5">Daniel Garner</h3> 7613 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 7614 <time datetime="2021-02-08T22:41:12+00:00"> 7615 February 8, 2021 at 10:41 pm </time> 7616 </p> 7617 7618 7619 7620 <p>Hi David, my father was a director of garners timber….i have a couple of photos of were the timber yards used to be….the timber yard was going for over a hundred years and was family run until it went bust 30 years ago…ive got quite a bit of info from my dad who is still alive…it sounds like the same family to me…i know the name of the company in the 30s was called s garner and sons….i think andy garner contacted me on twitter….if this sounds familiar you can email me for any info you may need</p> 7621 7622 </div> <!-- card-body --> 7623 </div><!-- card --> 7624 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 7625 7626 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 7627 </li><!-- #comment --> 7628 7629 </li><!-- #comment-## --> 7630 7631 <li id="comment-2300" class="comment odd alt depth-5"> 7632 7633 <article id="div-comment-2300" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 7634 7635 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 7636 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e9f88d3d42879301762c22785fae24a1aa0805c940687fd96746bac8fec77668?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e9f88d3d42879301762c22785fae24a1aa0805c940687fd96746bac8fec77668?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 7637 </div> 7638 7639 <div class="comment-content"> 7640 <div class="card"> 7641 <div class="card-body"> 7642 7643 <h3 class="h5">Pat</h3> 7644 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 7645 <time datetime="2021-09-03T07:40:10+00:00"> 7646 September 3, 2021 at 7:40 am </time> 7647 </p> 7648 7649 7650 7651 <p>Hi there! My grandfather was Robert Garner who married my grandmother Nell (Ellen) in very early 1900âs – I have their wedding pictures. They had 4 children, Robert, Elsie(1924), Peter, and Arthur. He left my grandmother for an ongoing affair covering many years and were never divorced. My grandmother died 1975. I have my grandfathers death announcement. The Garner Lumber yard went to this family, not his legal heirs. My grandmother didnât try to pursue this.

This was the equivalent of 10 House 3 Court St. Anne Street. I found an image of a model of court housing at St. Anne’s street at the Museum of Liverpool (<a rel=ânofollowâ href="https://www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk/mol/collections/social-history/item-267835.aspx" rel="nofollow ugc">https://www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk/mol/collections/social-history/item-267835.aspx</a>) which says they were demolished after the 1907 Housing Act. I’m presuming they weren’t demolished right away and am wondering when exactly they were demolished and if my great-grandparents were living in the original court housing or the new tenements that were built there afterwards.<br /> 7892Thanks very much!<br /> 7893Marie</p> 7894 7895 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2246" data-commentid="2246" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2246" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Marie Palmer" aria-label="Reply to Marie Palmer">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 7896 </div><!-- card --> 7897 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 7898 7899 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 7900 </li><!-- #comment --> 7901 7902 <ul class="children"> 7903 7904 <li id="comment-2247" class="comment byuser comment-author-martin bypostauthor odd alt depth-2 parent"> 7905 7906 <article id="div-comment-2247" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 7907 7908 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 7909 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fcc6543b3b95cb2ce4cbfb04bd48cc483fa5bdf2da2823f4dd8a2f2b5d949660?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fcc6543b3b95cb2ce4cbfb04bd48cc483fa5bdf2da2823f4dd8a2f2b5d949660?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 7910 </div> 7911 7912 <div class="comment-content"> 7913 <div class="card"> 7914 <div class="card-body"> 7915 7916 <h3 class="h5"><a target='_blank' href="https://historic-liverpool.co.uk" class="url" rel="ugc">Martin</a></h3> 7917 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 7918 <time datetime="2020-01-29T11:58:27+00:00"> 7919 January 29, 2020 at 11:58 am </time> 7920 </p> 7921 7922 7923 7924 <p>Hi Marie,</p> 7925<p>Yes, you’re right, they weren’t demolished straight away. I’ve looked at the old maps of the area and it looks like the courts on St Anne Street were gradually demolished from the 1920s onwards. There aren’t maps for many years between 1920 and 1950, but the 1951 map shows all the courts gone as far as I can see.</p> 7926<p>The 1908 map shows most of the courts still there, but there’s Victoria Square which looks like it could be a tenement, and that was in existence as far back as 1891. If you know
7926where 3 Court was you could look it up on this website: <a rel=ânofollowâ href="https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/Map/334907/391565/12/100674" rel="nofollow ugc">https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/Map/334907/391565/12/100674</a></p> 7927<p>Best wishes,<br /> 7928Martin</p> 7929 7930 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2247" data-commentid="2247" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2247" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Martin" aria-label="Reply to Martin">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 7931 </div><!-- card --> 7932 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 7933 7934 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 7935 </li><!-- #comment --> 7936 7937 <ul class="children"> 7938 7939 <li id="comment-2248" class="comment even depth-3"> 7940 7941 <article id="div-comment-2248" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 7942 7943 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 7944 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/466cb50ad6aeef6cc71b8159926913d496bf9d601671ac564f848dad9f172d77?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/466cb50ad6aeef6cc71b8159926913d496bf9d601671ac564f848dad9f172d77?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 7945 </div> 7946 7947 <div class="comment-content"> 7948 <div class="card"> 7949 <div class="card-body"> 7950 7951 <h3 class="h5">Marie Palmer</h3> 7952 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 7953 <time datetime="2020-02-05T17:57:27+00:00"> 7954 February 5, 2020 at 5:57 pm </time> 7955 </p> 7956 7957 7958 7959 <p>Thank you so much, Martin – I really appreciate your help.

If you google about it you get a lot of peoplesâ opinions. Iâll see if I can find anything that talks about the myth and its history.

I can’t find any information about what was there at the moment (I haven’t got access to recent enough directories) but I wonder whether it was an admin office either for a forerunner of the university or a boarding school (was the Collegiate ever a boarding school?). It might be worth contacting the offices there now to see if they have any knowledge of who used the buildings before them. They are Georgian houses so I don’t think 206 people would ever have lived at that address, though they could have been registered there for electoral purposes, like a modern halls of residence.</p> 8173<p>Best wishes,<br /> 8174Martin</p> 8175 8176 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2255" data-commentid="2255" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2255" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Martin" aria-label="Reply to Martin">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 8177 </div><!-- card --> 8178 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 8179 8180 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 8181 </li><!-- #comment --> 8182 8183 <ul class="children"> 8184 8185 <li id="comment-2256" class="comment odd alt depth-3"> 8186 8187 <article id="div-comment-2256" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 8188 8189 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 8190 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a4f32fee115ca9280bd5c963338ee7272b59986c3d78a1aeb4575b63c8f1e7c7?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a4f32fee115ca9280bd5c963338ee7272b59986c3d78a1aeb4575b63c8f1e7c7?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 8191 </div> 8192 8193 <div class="comment-content"> 8194 <div class="card"> 8195 <div class="card-body"> 8196 8197 <h3 class="h5">Gavin Cliffe</h3> 8198 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 8199 <time datetime="2020-06-26T18:15:08+00:00"> 8200 June 26, 2020 at 6:15 pm </time> 8201 </p> 8202 8203 8204 8205 <p>Many thanks Martin for the useful tips of where to look next.

I’m trying to find photos for my mum of where she used to live as a kid. She lived in Adlington Street, which I believe is still there but obviously now it will look nothing like it did when she was living there. She was born in 1948, so anything you could dig up or point me in the direction of for around that time would be fantastic. Like most people in those days they didn’t have much cash, and she has no childhood photos of any of the family and she was saying just the other day how much she’d love to see some pictures of the old place. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!!</p> 8679 8680 <p class="reply comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2274" data-commentid="2274" data-postid="1913" data-belowelement="div-comment-2274" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to Lydia Thompson" aria-label="Reply to Lydia Thompson">Reply</a></p> </div> <!-- card-body --> 8681 </div><!-- card --> 8682 </div><!-- .comment-content --> 8683 8684 </article><!-- .comment-body --> 8685 </li><!-- #comment --> 8686 8687 <ul class="children"> 8688 8689 <li id="comment-2276" class="comment byuser comment-author-martin bypostauthor even depth-2"> 8690 8691 <article id="div-comment-2276" class="comment-body mb-4 d-flex"> 8692 8693 <div class="flex-shrink-0 me-3"> 8694 <img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fcc6543b3b95cb2ce4cbfb04bd48cc483fa5bdf2da2823f4dd8a2f2b5d949660?s=80&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/fcc6543b3b95cb2ce4cbfb04bd48cc483fa5bdf2da2823f4dd8a2f2b5d949660?s=160&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-80 photo img-thumbnail rounded-circle' height='80' width='80' decoding='async'/> 8695 </div> 8696 8697 <div class="comment-content"> 8698 <div class="card"> 8699 <div class="card-body"> 8700 8701 <h3 class="h5"><a target='_blank' href="https://historic-liverpool.co.uk" class="url" rel="ugc">Martin Greaney</a></h3> 8702 <p class="small comment-meta text-body-secondary"> 8703 <time datetime="2021-02-01T18:35:40+00:00"> 8704 February 1, 2021 at 6:35 pm </time> 8705 </p> 8706 8707 8708 8709 <p>Hi Lydia,</p> 8710<p>There are a few references to Adlington Street that I’ve found.

Most of the numbers on that street were terraced houses. I don’t know if No. 54 was one of these, but there’s a high chance it was, and if so then I’d say that it was a domestic address, and therefore possibly where her biological mother lived. However, there was an orphanage marked across the street from the houses on the 1914 map. It’s gone by the time of the 1951 map, but it could have been there in 1948, and raises the possibility that this is where your nana was brought to.
