I had a look for Torr St from above and Albion st way but nothing. A lot of the south end over the Anglican and funnily enough, Gerard Gardens being built which I got years ago during my books research. Not a lot over L5 way.

I went to St Anne's, Overbury Street and remember Entwistle Heights well. It's only after being part of Yo that I now know the name of the heights. A few of my friends lived there, and I did visit - and was well impressed by the flats - given I only lived in a beautiful Georgian house!
Ged, if I'm not mistaken the 3 storey block in front of Entwistle heights is Milner House.
Could be my comp?but I only get 3/4 of the pic,untilI click on the pic and then it reveals the woman in the second photie.
Use the scroll bar George as i've mentioned.
Yes, there was a block called Milner House Lindy, but that was another block, see the high rise page on my site.
I have other pics of Entwistle including the foundations going in by Truscon Ltd (of prefab concrete panels fame) on 1.10.62
Also a pic of it sheeted, pre demolition.

Just to say a massive THANK YOU to the legions who have visited my site taking it's hits to now over the THREE MILLION mark.
I expect there are a number of reasons, not least a google search when looking Liverpool city related information will sometimes bring up a link plus I have left contact details at my model in the museum whose attendance rate itself is looking ever healthy. Also I notice that genealogy sites are recommending my site to those looking to bolster their family tree information with photographs of 'the way it was' which has also increased the number of people contacting me for information and photographs.
All in all, a big well done to everyone, THANKS again.
Well done Ged This makes you a multi millionaire I reckon
It is Accomplished
Your Welcome Ged
Great site, no wonder it gets the hits.
BE NICE......................OR ELSE
A brilliant site Ged - I've lost hours looking at all the pictures.
A big well done Ged.
I'm not surprised your site is so popular.....but I have a complaint.... when I get in there I have trouble getting out......I get lost for days!!!
Ha ha thanks Lizzie. I'm in the throes of another 'little' venture at the moment and i'll let you all know when it's about to go live but it'll be a few months yet.
Stick to Inacityliving,Ged.....Train spotting is not your forte.I'm in the throes of another 'little' venture at the moment and i'll let you all know when it's about to go live but it'll be a few months yet.
