    Default Tuebrook.

    They say an Englishman's home is his Castle and some of these fine properties of architectural character bear that out more than most. These can be found on Sandringham Road in Tuebrook.

    I remember walking past these as a kid trying to imagine the lives and scenes that were played out in them. Sometimes I wonder whether or not the gangs who walk past them now are thinking the same thing?

    This is what happens when you start modernising old houses.

    The questions need to be answered as true as you can possibly get them because if they are not then this is what happens.

    My houses is 1876 and it gave a date within 3 years of its first build but I was accurate with answering all the questions.

    I have noticed these houses on many a occasion. There are some identical properties (give or take) on Mannering Road, Toxteth

    Perhaps there was a specialist builder around at the turn of the last century?
