Whitefield Road off Rice Lane, Walton is also unadopted but has been re-tarred recently. It's only a small cul de sac with no frontage but is signposed as being unadopted

It's actually the only one I know of in Liverpool and is also the most memorable. Where I lived in Northumberland was a village called Whitfield (meaning white fields but had the "e" dropped for some reason") en-route to Wallasey, we alway's passed Whitefield Road which stuck in my mind over the years.
Wallasey has an unadoped Road off Field Road which is unpaved but does have lighting.

Kev,heres yer pothole piccies.
These few are of the Cobbled streets on the High St W/Tree.
You can see a lot of Potholes have been filled in but the streets are in a terrible state and the Patchy/Crap tarmac refill effort just makes it worse.
These next few are at the Palm House end of Sefton park with the Palm house in the Distance.
These are a Few Hundred yards further on after the Cave.
Further on with Lark Lane in the distance.
A few hundred yards past Lark lane looking back toward Lark Lane.
The Exit leading to Aigburth Rd by Jericho Lane in the Distance.
And this fella never had a clue what was going on !!
Leave him ere Kev,,He's doin' no harm Lad.
By the looks of it, someones been round and painted lines around the pot-holes; this could mean that the road might get a few patches; having said that, they don't look fresh so I hope that I haven't gone and gotten your hopes up!

Those holes are big enough to swallow a Mini, get a Hummer.
You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else.

Otterspool Road leads down to the old (Otterspool) station that is inhabited by a taxi driver or repairer judging by the amount of black cabs dotted about the old station forecourt.
Great images Kev! Never knew Leda Grove existed; looks very nice indeed!
Coincidentally, I was up by Whitfield Road yesterday and saw that it has lost it's "Unadopted" plate so I think that the council have brought it. Aplogies for not being able to post any images!

My gran used to live in Stockbridge Street L5 (off Breckfield Road North),and I'm sure I can remember a little street near there being unadopted. I remember feeling sorry for it whenever we walked passed it - I wondered why no-one wanted it (oh the naivety of youth!) Pretty sure it was Stockbridge Place but as I'm getting older the memories are fading!
Can anyone confirm this - and prove I'm not going senile?
