The first picture shows Prince Ruperts Cottage, the view is looking up village street with your back towards the lockup.
The second picture shows the lockup area as viewed from the bottom of Everton Brow.
The third picture is the Everton hilside viewed from what is now the beginning of Great Homer St.
Fourth picture is a view of the old beacon, which was situated approximately on the corner of St Georges churchyard and Northumberland Terrace.
Fifth view is Everton hillside looking from the Kirkdale rd end of Great Homer St.
The last two are two views of the lockup and brow with the toffee shop. these two pictures are from two old postcards which I purchased some years ago.

More to follow when I can dig them out, (if you would like to see them!)

When they demolished all the 1960 flats around the lockup, they should have reinstated the village. Many developers would have willing built it. It would have acted as a catalyst for regeneration in the north end. Brought it up market. It is not too late.
