That's a beaut of a pic underworld. Where's it from, any credit to anyone - never seen it before?

Here you go Ged.
This was taken in St. Vincent Street just behind the Swan pub on London Road, and Seymour street falling down in the background.
I took this sometime in 1977.

That's a good un H. As you may have gathered, I like the mundane shots, that's a compliment by the way. There must be 3 million to choose from of the Liver or cathedral but I like these long lost views. I spy a MK 1 Cortina, Capri and Morris 1100 too. ;)
What made you take it though?
Well my Grandad used to live St Vincent street and we used to play right there mate, bursting tar bubbles on the road in the summer with a matchstick, and getting a telling off when we got in.
'Bully' for you - if you get what I mean ;)
Yeah i wouldn't mind though, me mam shouldn't have shouted at me for bursting tar bubbles, I mean I was 24 at the time!
Ayear earlier than your pic, 76 - that summer phew. I remember bursting tar bubbles in our square that year and making those propeller things with lolly ice sticks after demolishing a 'there's nothing nicer than a pendleton's twicer.
And those big hairy caterpillers were everywhere - or was it a young Liam Gallagher?
Well i was joking Ged :p
I was bursting mine around 63-64, in 76 I'd well discovered Gurls and beer!
Not what I heard ;)
