Hi Philip
I also have the Jim Moore book Underground Liverpool, and I would count Mr. Moore as an authority. I would be less likely to credit Freddy O'Connor as an authority at least in his contention, on the other thread we have ongoing, that there were underground passages connecting the Vines to the river that were used for smuggling. I believe Mr. Moore deals with facts but to my mind Mr. O'Connor, at least in making that statement, is buying into legend and rumor rather than actual fact.

And getting back to this idea that there are streets below the current Liverpool streets, there may be underground passages below the present-day streets, I don't deny that possibility, but are there actual shops, as the title of this thread states, "Shops underneath Church street" would indicate, that there were "Victorian" shops down there?
