Great video! I lived at no. 6, Givenchy Close from 1965 to 1967, directly opposite the doctor's practice. Back then, all the houses on Givenchy Close were army quarters. I went to Rudston Road Junior School at the time and would spend considerable amounts of time at the riding stables at Childwall Abbey.

Interesting video, thanks. I like Dominic Close. I walk through it sometimes and I remember the entry on the Greenhill side before it was blocked off. It must have been a lovely place to live when your grandparents lived there and it was, I guess, semi rural. I'd love to see either a video or an interactive map showing the exact order that all of the roads in Childwall were built in, as well as the dates/years. I'm also curious about the farmland that was here beforehand, who owned and lived on the land in medieval times and what kinds of lives they lived. Going even further back than that, I wonder when farming started here and what it was like before agriculture...a prehistoric forest? Amazing to think about it.

Excellent, thank you! I really enjoyed this introductory episode. A lot of the geography of what you were talking about was relatively familiar to me, as I was also brought up in Childwall; although a few years earlier than yourself as I was born in 1945, in Inchcape Road, off Chelwood Avenue, Liverpool 16.
