Wavertree Garden Suburb

[marie]

Hi Marie

Others can expand on this but a number of the neighbourhoods of Liverpool were known as "garden suburbs" because they characteristically had semi-detached or lines of attached houses with a garden front and back, as opposed to the terraced housing closer to the city center that had little or no garden, usually just a paved back yard and maybe a hedge in front behind a wall or a small garden. I grew up on Aigburth Hall Avenue in Mossley Hill in a semi-detached house that was part of a garden suburb developed in the 1930's.

All my best

I understand it. But I think that its a beauty project. Maybe somes neighbourhs cannot have a good garden coz its too much free time or too much money.
