Hello from NZ!
My fathers family lived in Croxteth and Spring Street back in the early 20th century. (Roberts and Thompson). I would love some help in finding any old photos of either of those streets. And map locations too. My Dad worked at Cammell Laird as did his father, and that included on the Arc Royale. Some other family members worked at Sunlight.

God help us,
Come yourself,
Don't send Jesus,

Well done Bri, I read as the area of Croxteth and Spring St. If he can't see the image he can fiddle with the above maps.
