South Johh Street?

[Cadfael]

Nice to see a Liverpool registered bus. My old Mk2 Fiesta's reg was KKB.

It in the location of the QEII law courts with Trials Hotel and the Town Hall in the far back ground.

I'll have to look the street up as its not there any more but Cable Street runs off it.

Is it South Castle st?

[PhilipG]

Is it South Castle st?

Certainly is.

[goldenface]

Well done Ged. There is a street sign on the wall but I went Gozzy trying to work out what it said.

[Ged]

Thanks folks. I vaguely remember it. Wasn't there a telegraph house or something on Cable st where the postmen/telegram men parked their old red bikes outside, early 70s ish.

Yes, there was.
I've got photos which I'll put in the '1980s, 1990s' thread.

Thanks Phil, that'll bring back some memories. When you think of how that area has changed a number of times before and is currently changing again.

I've found the photos, and while you're right about the bus being in South Castle Street, Telegraph House was actually in South John Street (I wrote it on the back of the photos, that's how I know. )

I'll scan them now.

Ta. It's all these 'Souths', obviously got me mixed up a bit.

Well done lads! Yeah Telegraph House was nearby used to look after it when I was an Estates Manager at BT.
