Birkenhead Road is known affectionately as The Dock Road, Wallasey. Thanks, didn't know that. I suppose it makes sense as it's a continuation of the actual Dock Road.

They do appear to be angry: maybe they heard about the closure.

Zipper's pic clearly shows the front iron railings of the Goodyear Aviation building, immediately next door to the toy factory. Their very attractive, modern building was just a few yards behind the railings. The development engineers there were working on ABS braking systems and I had an interview with them following my national service. My late wife also had an uncle who worked there in security. Many times I collected him from outside and we would zip through to The Black Horse or The Ship Inn for a few jars. I was living in Wallace Street (aged 7) at the start of the war ... but we soon moved up the road about 100 meters to 68 Kelvin Road ... so as to be "safer" from the bombing of the docks and railways. Yeah, yeah, yeah ! When the Plaster Board closed ... I think that the toy factory came first followed by Goodyear.
