I have posted this one before but in another thread. I think it should be in this thread.

No quite a street name. Spotted in Shaw St, Everton. I wasn't kerb crawling either !!

I keep saying in Local History:
"Never make assumptions."

There must be a reason, though.

There is! There's a social security office there. St. Mary's house,Ithink

Thank you.
That makes sense!
It probably used an abbreviated postal address - hence the postcode on the streetsign.

Love this thread...such interesting names etc., When I was a child we first lived in Towson Street, then when the house was bombed we moved to live with my grandparents in Alderville Road. Then when my dad came out of the Navy and became a policeman we lived in Dawber Street. Near there was Ogden's tobacco factory and Barker and Dobson sweet factory which I think was on Boundary Lane. My dad then became a Prison Officer at Walton Prison and we went to live with my grandma at 49 Frampton Road. Then my dad was beaten up by a prisoner, ended up in Walton Hospital fighting for his life. When he eventually recovered he wasn't allowed to go back to a top security prison, so we moved again...this time to the open prison at Sudbury in Derbyshire. I was nearly 14 then, and we never lived in Liverpool again after that. I do visit when I can, but not as often as I'd like, that's why I love forums like this were I can still see some of the old places and be reminded of the great city that I still feel is my home.
Thanks to all of you who post photos and start interesting threads like this one.
