The 1970 riots

I remember the 2 factions quite cleary and my pals from around the Parly area didn't venture down Park rd - and probably vice versa.

all teenage stuff. :)[/QUOTE]




I work in Liverpool 8 - I love the community..............sad to say that the invisible line between Toxteth and Dingle continues to run along Park Road. I know this for a fact. Unfortunately people remain racist towards each other - black and white..........and it's not just teenagers.

I was born and brought up there. The border was Upper Warwick St/Windsor St, not Park Rd.

Although I'm an Anfielder, I had friends and family in L8 and was around there a lot. I'm the same age as you and I remember the Parly/Granby V Park rd spats.

What's this with the "quite Cleary":unibrow:

Back in the 60's and 70's the border was indeed Windsor St, and further on up, to include Admiral St. There may have been some 'progress' in the mean time, but it certainly isn't spectacular.
So I'll take Burkhilly's contemporary take on it - sad as it is.

Yes lindylou teenage stuff the manipulation of children is wrong, as in what is gong on today.
