Hi Phred,
I recognise that book. I borrowed that book from my mother about 5years ago and mislaid it in my house. I have been desperately searching for it for the last few weeks. I seem to remember it was pre second world war possibly 1920's as the speke estate had not been built. It showed Everton before the slum clearence programme began. Must keep looking
Nice thread people. I aquirred a large map of Liverpool on linen, I think it was dated 1840 or 60. It was great. I took it over to my brother in Australia, and he had it framed, cost him a bomb. The shop he had it framed in paid him so they could keep it in the window for another week, They had so many people stopping to look at it. I may have a photo some where, but whether I can get it on here is some thing else, as I am a cave man with pc's !![]()
Can anyone please post this map with No 2 court in Kitchen St please.
This is the large scale map.
Many thanks in the hope some one can oblige me.
Dave

Would you believe it birdseye, its got to be the top end on St.James St.
Thanks again for your post for me.
Thanks birdseye,
Is that the large scale 1891 o/s map.
Thanks again
Just over the moon we beat that crowd again.
It's OS Lancashire sheet 106.10 of 1906.Bought a few of these a couple of years ago. Invaluable for finding what used to be where.
Be reading in the national papers tomorrow about how lucky Liverpool were to scrape through. If Chelsea had won it would be seen as a masterpiece of footballing skill.
I walked down Kitchen Street today. The top end, near St. James' Street, has modern property (derelict petrol garage on one side and Aigburth Tiles building on the other). Heading down to the 'dock road' over the Jamaica Street junction, are several old warehouse type buildings. Late 1800s/early 1900s I'd guess.
This area is very near the old Blundell Street (Wapping) Goods Station, so someone might have more information/pics. I think on the very next block is a triangilar vent for the railway.
Hi Marky
I have a copy of the 1891 o/s map which covers the section upto Jamacia St.
The courts included are numbers 3,4, 5, 7,8,10, 11,12,14. but no number 2 court.
The great thing about this o/s map is it is large scale, great detail and the courts are numbered.
