There are many off Wavertree High Street and Smithdown Road
Any More anywhere?

just found this
In the 19th century there was an anti urban reaction, people didn’t particularly like towns and cities because of the dirt and the disease and the smells, so even if they were building terraced streets, they may want to try to refer to some "bosky green" area of England and we have many local areas which have "dale" at the end of the street names - for instance, Dovedale, Lidderdale, Briardale, etc.
