If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

Fifty years ago, I was 8 years old and lived in Crosby. Every morning I walked to school (Forefield Lane) along the Northern Road. I used to walk over the roundabout (there wasn't much traffic) and head towards the area where you now see the flats on the right hand side of the photo. I remember when all that area was wooded and in the spring, there was a profusion of gorgeous bluebells which drew me too them. I would stop to pick up a few to take to teacher in school.
