I'll add them as LRO of course but supplied by Mandy or Karen etc etc. David Stoker is very good at giving permission for websites and forums to use the LRO photos as long as not for commercial use and they take the stance that they are being shared and preserved as long as they are duly credited.
Thanks.
sure no probs. It's great being able to see the LRO ones on one page. It takes ages to go through them in the LRO as you probably well know. 1 set of photos per slip and they only go through to the stores every 15-20 minutes.
I don't know how long my gtgt grandparents lived there for, by 1891 what was left of the family had gone to Soho St.

Another pages i've added to my website:
Many of these are available online but many i've photographed or scanned from the LRO search room so are not. Anyhow, at least they are all now in one place with captions instead of having to retrieve them one by one.
Enjoy.....

Thanks Zaps.
Another 20 odd pics added to the foot of this page - many of the buildings which were long standing local establishments such as Mill Road maternity hospital and Edge Hill/Toxteth churches have now bitten the dust.

Thank you Lindy.
I'm new to this forum and I was wondering if anyone had any photos of what I believe was called Sirdar Street (located, as far as I remember, between Overbury Street and Tunnel Road, and there is a modern cul-de-sac in the area called Sirdar Close) I think the street was demolished in the 60's and was replaced with flats. The reason I ask is because I was near enough brought up in one of those flats called Birchover Walk which was on Smithdown Road, in between the school and Entwistle Heights. It belonged to my Nan, who is still with us at the grand old age of 90 and living on the Wirral. She used to mind me in the early 70's while my Mum trained at the David Lewis Northern Hospital and Dad was a fireman at Durning Road. I have many fond memories of that place and would love it someone had some pictures
