[@teresamorris7132]

Thank you for the memories I grew up offlodge lane and Smithdown Road , to see it now is so sad all those magnificent buildings gone. Oh well I guess they call it progress.

[@JimAtHome]

Great ensemble of pic's the city centre ones bring back a lot memories of my chilhood in the 60's such a shame what they did to St Johns (old) market whitechapel and quite a bit of church street you could almost cry looking at the state of Lime ST up to ST Luke's all the old picture houses just left to rot scala futurist abc lime st etc. Well done much appreciated.

[@deathofcommonsense]

Wow, as a 10yo in 1961 I caught rheumatic fever and was in the children's hospital, seeing it now brought back all those memories! Thanks Tom.

[@internet123ism2]

Have to get my map out. Grandma and Grandad on Edenfield Road took me to the Mystery. Not sure how long a walk that would've been.

[@bettysmith5325]

[@davekelly5503]

Great images , great music👍

[@zabadak68]

Superb! My parents were from around the Grafton Street/ Beaufort Street area. We were all brought up in Garston, right on top of St. Mary's Road. Some very wonderful photos. Thanks for putting them on.

[@alanhoughton3252]

I bet you went to Duncombe Road school as I did in the 50’s.

[@johnbrown9092]

Excellent Tom. The shot looking down Grafton Street was were I walked with mum after getting off the overhead at Herc Dock station on our way for a cuppa at Grans. Thanks.

[@garysimpson3900]

Even as late as 1960, Park Rd looks like a vibrant major route out of the city. Comparing some of the pictures with Google Map, very little of the imposing buildings survive & the area is now a sad backwater reflection on what was there before.

[@TommyBrown7]

You could get everything you needed on Park Road, from a 3 piece suit to a 3 piece suite.

[@999DaveUK]

Wonderful pictures. Well done!

[@hubs37]

In my opinion Liverpool has some of the most evocative beautiful historical street and area names of any city in Great Britain. Study them and they tell you their history which goes way back to Saxon times.

[@stephensmith4480]

A lot of the street names are associated with Belfast too. Another superb film.

[@Resgerr]

Pity the council got in the way 😒and torn them down

[@cct7558]

I learned to swim in Stebby baths.

[@canyonproductions]

Great pictures. Makes me feel a little sad. Most of those places are gone now. I was born in 1940 in Upper Mann St. between Park St. and Northumberland St. in the tenements facing the horse stables. The Old Liverpool pics just missed showing that by one street. I was soooo disappointed. Anyone out there come across any pics?

[@derekhogg5771]

WISH YOU HAD PHOTOS OF EDGE LANE WERE I WAS BORN, NOW I LIVE IN AUSTRALIA CAME HERE WHEN I WAS 12YEARS OLD

[@TheLastSongbird124]

Born on the docks 51, went to Aus 76, had a wonderful life. Now live in Europe (not UK). These photos bring back so many good memories, even tho we had nothing, the community was strong, as a kid I felt like I belonged, knew so many people, like one big family :) And the people lived with a strong set of values we all understood and upheld. A time when we weren't afraid to let the kids play in the streets and no one was going to come and threaten you with a knife! Wouldn't live in UK now if you paid me millions!

[@mikeymc3094]

With is the pic at the front of the Royal nurses accommodation not infirmary on Pebrook place City Centre If it’s South end Sayin that Brilliant video mate. They killed it all on us didn’t they These councillors an bastard developers

[@jimmyskiff9858]

Not sure that was Loge Lane but great vid. Thanks

[@TommyBrown7]

My bad. I think you’re right. Cheers 👍🏻

[@das5813]

Liverpool was an exciting place, I remember visiting some relatives when I was only about 7 in the early 60s. They lived in the cellar of a four storey house which I think they used to have lodgers. At the end of the street I could see the giant ships which were fascinating. We even took a trip on the Mersey ferry to Birkenhead and back. Sadly all the houses have been demolished by the council slum clearance, claiming that they were unsanitary as the toilets emptied right into the river. I don't think they knew what damage they did when they demolished so much of old Liverpool. So much destruction for no good reason.

[@Northernspotter101]

Thats agreat nostalgia trip well done !

[@MrMusicbyMartin]

Grafton street looks so different but also familiar - that 10ft wall is still there.

[@chimoio100]

[@teresamorris7132]

OMG just saw Old Nicks Cave and I remember going there as a child

[@51scouser]

Thanks Tom, really enjoyed this!

[@stephensmith4480]

Brilliant. I grew up in Caryle gardens. I can remember many a happy hour down the cast iron shore, i fell down a big muddy hole and tried to sneak into the bathroom without my mam seeing me. Needless to say, it didnt work lol.

[@TommyBrown7]

Thanks for the comment, really appreciated. Have a gander at the Park Road and Milly show. kzbin.info/www/bejne/imjCdmOtn9OWbJY

[@jazbar49]

Marvellous Tom. Lark Lane largely unchanged. You should get in touch with guy who runs Liverpool Then and Now on FB.

[@ianr3307]

just sitting looking at the video I used to go to my nans in Hesketh st, off lark lane then right at the end a photo of a night out in the Masonic and there is both my nan and grandad, shocked...... i thought they were both teetotal all that time :)

[@TommyBrown7]

You must be Frank and Sally Reavey’s grandson. It’s my mum dad and grandmother with them. Also my uncle and aunts

[@Barbara-yj5tl]

@@TommyBrown7 Aww I hope @ Ian r has read your comment, Tom. Thanks for these videos they’re great to look back.

[@merryweatherflowers]

Apparently some of the dingle and southill house flats where painted red because the dock workers and sailors brought home the red paint used on the ships the doors and walls where painted with it as well it was lead paint thou

[@stormytempest3907]

Oh I ! Red Oxide it's called, alot went on!😁 regards.

[@ronjones3657]

Hi is there any chance you can come up with some photos from the likes of Ouse Street as I used to live there, there was a shop called Osborne's, it was on the corner of South Street and Ouse Street, the Criterion was facing our street, Joe Moore's it was called, the next street along towards Park Road was a shop called slattery's a general store, and a street the other way there was a shop called Jonny Bowman's, he used to sell fruit and veg. Hope you can find them as when I went back to the area I didn't recognise anywhere. Best Wishes Ron Jones 🤗 👀

[@Barbara-yj5tl]

Hi Ron….I lived in Greta Street next to Ouse street. Slatterys was on the corner of our street. My brother Peter was good friends with Billy Slattery. My Brother in law managed the Old Stingo pub opp Mount Carmel church. Remember Moynihans sweet shop and the Christmas window with all the annuals? Osbornes was one of the nicer shops to get bread from. Johnny Bowman I can still picture him and the tiny black dog (pug?) who was always in the shop. How life has changed :)

[@ronjones3657]

Hi Barbara, Thank god for that 👀 I thought I was in a parallel universe, I lived in number 38 Ouse Street, I was always sent to Osborne's by my mother with a note, asking for credit it was alway's, a pint of sterie, loaf, and 10 Woodbine's. I was friends with one of the slattery's, and a guy named Tony snell, not sure if he's the Tony snell. I wish I could get back to them time's. 🤗 👀

[@Barbara-yj5tl]

@@ronjones3657 My mother smoked woodbines too:) I remember Tony Snell, think he had a sister called Linda. I do miss the old days but I don’t miss the poverty, Ron. There’s a photo of The old stingo Liverpool 8 showing a bit of our street if you do a search. Our Peter & his mates would make the biggest fire on bonfire night on that debi right next to our house :)

[@ronjones3657]

Hi Barbara, did you live right by the shop I think it was next to the entry (enog) as we used to Call it, because there was an debris at the top of our part of Ouse Street, as you know, the street's where in two half's. 🤗 👀

[@Barbara-yj5tl]

@@ronjones3657 Hi…ours was the end house next to the debri before you get to the pub. You might remember Mr Romeo the ice cream man he lived next door to us.

[@jiba1286]
