Hi all

I think this is a significant early development for Liverpool ahead of other cities. As I recall Liverpool was also in the lead, somewhat controversially, in pioneering CCTV coverage in the downtown areas, for crime prevention, I think as far back as the Sixties.

All the best

Great snippet of history there. Brill find.
