I wouldn't mind going to Biiirrrrkenhead laaa to see this park.
To be honest it's having a lot of "heritage lottery fund" money spent on it and wont be ready until about 2008 so it's probably worth waiting.The Grand Entrance to the park is worth a visit in itself but it's currently under cover so I'll have to go back there myself.Quote:

Paul, it's great there. Being there this morning brought back so many memories I hadn't experienced since I was about 12 years of age. My little lad was running around everywhere buzzing :)
I understand where you're coming from,although I'm from the North end my dad wasn't and he used to take me to all these places as a kid and they all hold special memories for me also.:PDT_Aliboronz_24:Quote:

Snapped this rather fine looking frontage at the lower end of Lodge Lane Toxteth this morning. 1866 - details appreciated if you know much about it.

Managed to snap the Sefton Park Caves too. I would love to explore these and find out where they goto, unfortunately I think they are occupied by persons. Anyone got information about 'em?
