Hi there folks. After I posted in this thread I got to thinking about one of my old schools, Underlea. Having time to spare I went on google earth but just couldnt find it. Eventually I found out that it was no longer there and ended up being bought by a Japanese fellow called Isao Ishimiz a Chocolate Millionaire and shipped to Japan in 1996 !
I couldnt get much more from ixquick other than It was built by Hamilton Gilmour a Liverpool Merchant and finished in 1857. In 1919 it was donated to Liverpool Education Committee and by 1930 was used to educate children of poor health. It closed sometime in the seventies and pupils went to Thingwall Lane building.

Id love to know more about Hamilton Gilmour but Im stymied at the moment. Does anyone know where I might be able to get his history from ?
Cheers folks
