They were a few doors away from the White House.
The fire station I mentioned earlier was behind these houses at the left, and Dukes Terrace (back-to-backs) were (and are) behind at the right.
Just off the photo to the right was the concealed entrance to Dukes Terrace.
I've found I do have a 1950s map which identifies the fire station as a Police Garage, which it still was in the 1968 Kelly's directory (which doesn't mention a police station).
This is also the same area as identified on the above map.
Opposite was the Corporation Yard Marky describes.
It had earlier been the H/Q of the Liverpool Gas Company.

I remember going down that concealed entrance to take a pic of Dukes Terrace. Hubby wondered what on earth I was doing ,as did 2 Chinese blokes who were stood at the back of a shop having a ciggie.
Had to clamber over rubbish and rubble to get to it at the time.

I took lots of photos of Duke Street and through that entry, and the backs of the houses, in the 1980s.
Unfortunately, I had a flood and 2 plastic boxes of photos got soaked.
They're all stuck together, including the negatives.
I've tried soaking them apart, but nothing works.
