DD, Bert, how the hell do you DO that !!!! One road out of the hundreds and hundreds in Birkenhead, where original buildings were samey 2 up 2 down Corrie type roads , the buildings are now unrecognizable or missing ---- fencing different new full grown trees, roads no doubt resurfaced -- Im intrigued , what was the thing that gave you the clues? -- Ah, was it that you recognized an air raid shelter and narrowed it down from pinpointing all of those? Was there a map of air raid shelters? I did it the easy way but tigger beat me to it https://www.gettyimages.co.uk/detai...ng-a-neighbour-in-near-picture-id3368506
There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music.

But how did you know the image was on the getty images site - Was it just a guess and you trawled? There must be loads of history sites with photos of the Wirral ?

I can't remember what I searched for now, I didn't do my usual trick of a google image search which almost certainly would have found it. It was something simple I searched for eg war birkenhead or ww2 birkenhead

There you go................personal knowledge and memories will always leave Google etc standing still :-) Which is why it is so important to post knowledge and memories on the internet in the hope that it will continue after the person's memory has long gone.

Yes very well said. 'When an old person dies.................a library burns; down. As a child, sitting in a freezing MkI Ford Consul, in a very dark William Street, nearly 60 years ago, I can appreciate that statement.
