Tennis Courts

A Memory of Crosby.

My family lived in Crossender Road ,Crosby 1940-1948 There were KNIBBS Tennis Courts ( which was used by the US ARMY as a depot for some years during WW11) at the one end close to the railway line. At the other end of Crossender Road was the rear of the grandstand of MARINE Football Club.I too can remember the hill by the railway bridge on Mersey Road where sledges or lookalikes were used and large snowballs were made
