Thank you Bob, the pics are fantastic...I lived 5 doors up to the right from the Park gates, and Saint Monica's Church at the back where I got married still looks great!

We lived in Worcester Road and we lived next door but one to Monica, she had a son called David... my older sister Marion would probably remember her more.

Good photographs. The one of the shop named Blues, was that the newspaper shop run by the parents of Jimmy Payne the Liverpool soccer player. The other photograph that intrigues me is the cars etc parked on the sidewalk, do the police turn a blind eye to that?

I'm almost certain it was Payne's AND I think there was a Sunday School on top - I was sent there a few times but then sagged it and went to Derby Park instead.

Roberts, Allison are the Bootle names I'm interested in.

Thorp(e), Ballard, Parry, Lucas, Dodd, Jacobson, are Liverpool ancestors.

Hi, It was Paynes paper shop, old mrs .Payne was a right misery, and there was a sunday school above, then it became the provident, not sure whats up there now, as for the parking on the pavement, as long as the pavement does'nt get to damaged they do not bother anyone, as there are that many cars, no one has anywhere to park.

Great pics Bob, I lived roughly between Waterworks St and Park St. fond memories, spent may hours as a kid in the park. Yes the paper shop was were my granddad picked up all his papers, all the Sunday papers (for the pools) and the 4 comics he had been getting for years for Pete, but never stopped when he grew up, I guess he stayed young.(':D')
