St Johns Church - 'The church is a well thought-out and satisfying building. Demolished. 1976' Oops

Grange Road in 1953. This part of Grange Road no longer exists

Superb pics of the old town. I think the York became the Labour Club.

I remember the outside market. The car park was for Asda, it was a really ugly building with pillars, etc, and the flyover was just up the road. There were always kids wanting to take your trolley back for the 20p, although I was only about 10 then.

Even the price of 'hiring' a trolley has gone up!

brilliant pictures

Bloody ell that brought alot of memories running back haha The roof's in grange road where removed at the end of 1989 in towards 1990's i think they where removed for health and saftey reasons not to sure but i remember them when i was a kid then all of sudden they where gone.. Then birkenhead started to go down hill theres hundreds of shops up for let and its ashame that every shop used to be occupied.... .Also in the picture of the market theres the pub i was trying to remember a while back

Just when I got used to calling Allansons Beatties I have only just realised it is now House of Fraser

2nd pic
Is this part of House of Fraser or is it the front part of the cafe/restaurant whose entrance is next to the taxi place besides Beatties carpark opposite ZU/Stairways
Not sure if its called the Scouse Kitchen

Shows how long it is since i was last down that way, I thought it was still Beatties.

what were these shops called by Woolworths
