Interesting Taffy. What area is given to what it now known as Vauxhall please?

The 1855 Davies map just says Vauxhall Ward.

There's an "everton" sign on Stanley Road just past Lambeth Road heading into the city, but i'd say Stanley Road Nick and the Rotunda College are in Kirkdale.
I've always thought that
L4 = Walton
L5 = Kirkdale
L6 = Anfield
not sure where everton fits in? or should the Rotunda address look like...
109 Great Mersey Street
Kirkdale
Everton
Liverpool
L5 2PL

I've had a look at Davies's 1855 map of Liverpool which clearly shows the township boundaries of Everton. Essentially starting at Gt Homer St ( which was once called Boundary Lane) follow a line up opposite Boundary Street to Netherfield rd, then along Everton valley to Anfield Road cutting back to Walton Breck rd along Rockfield Rd, then along walton Breck Rd etc to Whitefield Rd. Along Whitefield rd to surprise, surprise Boundary Lane to West Derby Rd. Along West Derby Rd to Shaw Street, down Canterbury St, turn left at william Henry St and then right along Fox St and back to Gt Homer St.

This is approximately the old boundaries of Everton. There was some rounding off of field boundaries when streets such as Gt Homer St were laid out.

Hope this helps

Interesting...I have attempted to follow the roads given...



A chunk of Anfield seems to be in Everton here, although most people wold say that the centre of Anfield is at the Priory Road/Breck Road cross roads. How many people would agree with the above boundaries??? I might suggest that they have changed slightly in the Walton Breck Road area as Anfield has grown and spread in this area...not Everton.

The postcode map is very interesting indeed; especially in the Beacon Lane area..to think those streets have been replaced with utter crap!

If this isn't the right place then sorry - but I don't think it's a crime to ask questions

Some jobs are just not worth getting out of bed for ie there are wages that coincide with the basic unemployment allowance,take bus fares,dinner money out of that without Tax ect,ect and you're left with a piitance of a wage.

Your survey is not worth a blow on a ragmans trumpet ie the unemployment figure is not more than in any given area.
A posh area will yield people who own buisness or in a high income salary.

Kirby,Everton,Walton,Bootle,Anfield, ect,ect are all deprived areas were the lesser money is that doesn't mean to say the people won't work,they will if you give them a wage that they will be comfortably well off at the end of the week ie the wage is £30 to £40 better off than unemployment benefit.

there is no single or simple answer I can find as to why people born in Everton will be poorer and live shorter lives than those born a few miles further south.

Well thats a load of tosh for a start,now you're saying we live shorter lives than the rich folk.
