Great pic, Pablo. Promenade in the true sense of the word.

A delight indeed. At first glance, the chap with the gamp and bowler hat on the RH side of the picture looks as if he is walking down the double yellow lines at the kerbside !! Didn't think they had the double yellows then (?) grin

Is it just the shadow from the railings that make it look like double yellows?

Another fine shot, obviously taken not far from the one you posted last week, from 1913.

I suspect that the Liver Buildings was still under construction when this was taken. It looks like it was nearly half height, with some steel already in place with rigging around it and with a crane in use.

Mum used to talk about coming over
from Liverpool to Seacombe on the ferry
and walking to New Brighton to save the
difference in fare.

Nice summer clothes!!They look pretty warm.
