    Great pics, even I don't remember when Liverpool looked like that and I'm probably the oldest old fart here, even older than Bobbymac.

    I remember going into the shop at the end - pretty sure I'm right.

    Deprived of its unique dockland waters Liverpool
    becomes a Venice without canals, just another city, no
    longer of special interest to anyone, least of all the
    tourist. Would we visit a modernised Venice of filled in
    canals to view its modern museum describing
    how it once was?

    Yes, its still there, the front of the house has been sympathetically spruced up. However, it is now part of a pub.

    I can't belive Max hasn't photographed it yet!

    It's just to the right of that last pic.
    The mounting steps are opposite the church next to the Bluecoat.

    I was confused by the Aigburth Vale pic. it is actually Aigburth Road, Aigburth Vale would be to the right of the pic. All is clear now Ta.

    Great pics, have them copied, such memories, and yes Shy, you do have more memories than me, Lol.
    One thing tho. Lark Lane should read 'Larkhill Lane.
    There's always some a**hole picking holes.

    Interesting photos. Sorry if this link has already been mentioned. It's the Council's online photo archive. Type "jpg" in the Any text search box and it will bring up all the photos.

    That Liverpool site is fantastic, the only problem I found was that the link to enlarge them doesn't work.

    Liverpool in the 1980s.
    I'm a fan of Nancy's photos. She studied for a year in Liverpool in the early 80s, before returning to the US. She certainly got around! In my opinion they are the best set of 1980s Liverpool photos to be found anywhere on the internet. They are THAT good!
