Hiya Val
Our Lady's school is still in Northumberland Terrace but it is a new school.
the old one was demolished early 1970's
there is a photo in Liverpool Our City Our Heritage but it is very small,I will try to scan it tomorrow for you

Hi Val
I went up venmore street the other day before the match its v sad. I expect they will knock them down at the end of this season. They are supposed to be making a boulevard up to the new stadium. My nan and grandad Elsie and Bill used to live in 66, and my dad is Bill Thompson and his sister Hilary, their son and daughter. Whats your surname ? My uncle was Sid Sheldrake and Beattie who used to live next door to you. I found your email as I was searching to see if I could find any pictures of venmore street as it used to be. If you find any let me know

It is due for demolition as part of the regeneration of the Anfield Breckfield area, but some still live there. The council have been buying back properties for ages.

hi john,
I moved to croxteth in 1960 it had just been built all brand new.so it was lovely
including St Swithins school were i went, we moved into Mace Road which is at the back of a pub called the Dog & Gun,
Mace Road was a small cul de sac,only 10 houses 5 on each side
we were in the Echo as there were 100 kids living in those 10 Houses.
There were also maisonettes at the bottom of the road.
We left in 1980
