That is the corner of Litherland Road/ Linacre Lane as you come down the hill from the Linacre pub. On the opposite side, Linacre school is in the background.

Hey Dave & Bob,
You are right, Dave, but I must admit I had to take a closer look at it.
That Shop/house was featured by Mack a couple of years ago, with some discussion on whether there was a TV aerial shown on the roof.Circa1950!!.
I'm glad to see that you got on the Pix @ the WM it appears that all went well which is as it should be.
Thanks Eddy & Co for putting them up for us. Great.
I have to say another good part of the Meet-up must have been the 'Reds' would not have been as vocal after the result from Middlesborough, apart from the singing of"You'll never walk alone". That was great.
Only kidding, Eddy & Peter.
Cheers, Dave.
