    I've traipsed through quite a few sites, all good photos mind, but cannot find one from this area.

    Many thanks in anticipation.

    Thanks for the kind words Brian. I've still got hundreds to upload yet, not sure if I do have Queensland street but if I haven't I can put them on my list for my next visit to the LRO.

    Thanks Ged it's very much appreciated. The wife was born in that street but we can't find any old pictures of it.

    Looking at some of those photos brought back some nice memories especially around Vauxhall Rd.

    Keep up the good work.

    Hooper, to me Spike
    Saw Simon o`Brien on T V or a newspaper showing his conversion of an old property into a home.
    The front entrance was very similar with the stone over the front door.it`s what I remembered most about it.
    Possibie your building is an old flats conversion

    Numbers are right Joe! and if I take me specs off and 'squint'! it looks like A.S Hooper. (Perhaps it was the premises of 'Mr Hooper' the 'Cooper'!!!

    Guinness was based on Norfolk St. and the small building shown in the picture was used by them for some years as the a warehouse used bottle store.
    I've no idea what it was used for before Guinness used it.

    Great photos. One of the best buildings in the world.

    The architect Harvey Lonsdale Elmes also designed Liverpool Collegiate as well as Thingwall Hall.

    The good news is Brian, according to my copy of the LRO indexes, Queensland st is there both for City Engineers photos (old) and 70s/80 folder (possibly Ainscough pics)
