Atany, these houses are very old, known as 2 up, 2 down, as in the number of rooms. When built in fact, families were much larger so it would be more common for 6 or more people to be housed in them. Elswick Street was the 'Bread' Street (sitcom), my father-in-law was born in Grafton st then moved to one of these streets, Netherby but has been in the Flower Streets, Kirkdale now for 40 odd years.

Atany, not many miles South of here, some of the houses are as big or bigger then 3 or 4 of these put together.
