Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

This photo was taken from against the wall of our property at 3 Bidston Road, where I grew up (1945-65). You can just see the shadow of the sycamore tree that stood at the top of the garden. This is the Bidston Road / Gerald Road / Townfield Lane junstion. The church and the cottage (2 Bidston Road) still reamin, all that is left of No3 is the sandstone wall. Note the gas light - this is about as far as street lighting had reached - it was quite safe to walk around at night in those days !! We were regular attenders at St Saviour's
