You're welcome! I only purge my local history pics at the end of every year so I don't bore people or clog the board up on a daily basis. I've got a fair few more to upload soon and look for a few of Huyton as requested.

Love these pics, thanks for posting them, have you any of the Huyton area of Liverpool?

Wow, don't know where to start with this thread. Sure makes me feel bloody old when it represents the country of my youth that is long gone. The shots from the seventies may as well have been from the war, though black and white imagery adds to this effect. Incidentally the Clare billiards tables shot is interesting as I think it's retouched, the vans having been dropped in for some probable marketing purpose. If these are your pics, or you own the rights, quality depending you should approach a publishing firm and propose a book full of them along the lines of 'Lost London'. Those pics are amazing, haunting and very thought provoking.

 

Top post mate!

These are  bloody priceless, thanks for taking the time to  share them.   I wasn't on here when the  thread started so have just spent a good hour going through them.   I wish the  world still looked like this.

That's all for now as I need a coffee!

 

I'll try and dig some colour pics out as soon as I can.

I must admit that the very shonky Bedford CA would find a home at the Claim house.

What's he with his Cedric barge? Some sort of 'hood lord?

2mins into the you tube vid (just noticed it was posted last year  ) they drive into the Cheshire lines car park.

Far side of the rail tracks is where the TR7 was made.

Now an Asda estate.
