Good Spot, outside 112 Coningsby Drive 
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.

This is Wallasey road crossing Torrington Rd and Belvidere Rd at the traffic lights.
My father had the Stationers and Printers shop at 106 Wallasey Rd just out of the photo.

In a 1949 directory, the same shops are numbers 108 to 112 Wallasey Road at the Belvidere Road Junction. Looks like they're heading up Torrington Road. I agree. If you check out the upper windows above the shops some have the same decorative brick pattern around them. Also the one on the left end has a single wide window and to the right they are narrower doubles. So the shop at the left end is now Valentines Estate agents and to the right of that is a kebab shop then Jones & Chapman. See here in Google Earth 53°25'10.68" N 3°03'01.42" W

Doh. Should have realised there were no traffic lights in Wallasey Village. Don't think there are any now apart from crossings and they didn't exist in that form then.
