Gosh - what a super site. It covers all my
interests in Liverpool / history / walking, and even has
a separate page on ancient churches - a particular
interest of mine. I can see many a happy hour ahead
browsing through the site, and will no doubt be in touch
again. Thank you very much.Dave Wood

Thanks for the photos and info on Liverpool and
Wirral. It is a fantastic resource. I found it by chance
when researching for collieries in the Neston area.

My grandfather John Alfred Evans, b.1876 in West
Derby Liverpool, came to Australia around 1905 and little
was known about his family or where he lived. This site
has given me a huge insight as to what it was like and
still is in Liverpool.

As an expatriate Scouser (Wavertree) now living
in So. California, I loved all of the photos and
positively wallowed in nostalgia. Ah, the memories of my
misspent youth!

Last year I noticed an old railway line and
station in West Derby village and was interested in when
the line had been closed and the general history. After
viewing AO I got all the info I wanted. A bonus was the
link to walks in and around Merseyside.

I have just received your web site from a friend
in the States. I have only looked into it briefly but I
am very impressed. I live in Melbourne Australia, and
anything to do with Liverpool has my attention. I look at
the Lark Lane site quite often.

Thoroughly enjoyed your site. Thanks for the
great memories. Joanne Roberts (nee Joan Mansell), if you
read this, please contact me. Mansell was my maiden name,
we may be related!

I am delighted with the content of the website.
Both the information and the photographs are impressive.
All in all a great experience for those who cannot view
the area in person. Keep up the good work. If you decide
to publish a book let me know.
Irene Lincs
What a great idea for all of us who no longer
live in our Liverpool as we are still very proud to be
scousers.

Was at St.Peters School until 1940, then Old
Swan Tech. until 1942. An excellent site that has been
put in my favourites to go back and explore time and
again.You have done a lot of work and research. I
understand that the Allerton Oak is over 1000 years old.
Ann Higginson
Thank you for all the effort into creating this
wonderful nostalgic site.

Recommended to view this site by John Finnigan.
Very worthwhile.

I was born Joan Mansell in 1930 at 215 St Marys
Road Garston. I maried Ray Courbet in 1952. I miss
Liverpool more and more each year and regret ever moving.

What a wonderful site, congratulations. I have
walked some of the areas you have tabled on previous home
visits, but your great detail and photos will allow me an
even better opportunity to revisit many and more of the
sites/sights of my childhood.
Alan Wignall,

What a magnificent resource for visitor and
local alike. The walks are amazingly detailed and the
photos and history add real flavour to the experience.
Thank you so much for the time and effort invested in the
site.
Arthur Henry,

Excellent site. Keep up the good work.
Don Garton
Hi Laurence. Like your site a lot. Will be
visiting it regularly. Keep up the good work. Have you
got more pictures of pubs?
Evelyn (from
Weston-Super-Mare)
I've just spent a lovely, interesting and
nostalgic hour or so on your website. Your photos are
great, especially St. George's Hall, Walker Art Gallery,
etc. Keep up the good work!

It brought a tear to our collective eye to see
scenes of Merseyside again. Loved living in liverpool,
and recently seeing lots of our dear friends again after
a very long sojourn. Arightlike!
Dave
Nice pictures of Wirral, especially the ones
near Heswall and the Wirral Way.
John Finnigan
A thoroughly well researched site full of
interesting walks, facts, comments and, not least, high
quality photographs. A feast for those interested in all
things Scouse, and a valuable source of information and
Liverpool trivia.
Gordon
A very attractive website. The photographs are
good and the walks well planned and detailed.
David Isherwood
Interesting useful site!
John
Just had a look around your site - extremely
interesting. The photo of Allerton golf course with the
sun setting is very atmospheric and the Liver Building,
as usual, is mightily impressive.
Paul
Nice pictures on your site. In response to your
request for information, the landmark pictured near Hall
Road is one of two measured mile markers which were used
by shipping to calibrate their speed instruments when
leaving port.
Colin
In Woolton Woods there is a Walled Garden. I had
forgotten about this until I glimpsed it through the
trees. It has the old floral cuckoo clock in it. Thanks
for doing this walk - it took me back through areas
unvisited for a long time.
