Brunswick railway terminus (site), Liverpool

Opened in 1864 by the Garston and Liverpool Railway, soon part of the Cheshire Lines Committee, this station was the northern terminus for passengers until 1874 when a new link was opened to Liverpool Central station. The station continued as a goods station until the 1970s. View north towards the site. All trace has apparently been removed. For more information, see Link

Opened in 1864 by the Garston and Liverpool Railway, soon part of the Cheshire Lines Committee, this station was the northern terminus for passengers until 1874 when a new link was opened to Liverpool Central station. The station continued as a goods station until the 1970s, with a large new building erected on the site in 1894. View south east from the road, from a similar position to SJ3488 : Brunswick Goods Station, 1964 – 1 taken nearly 60 years earlier. Almost no trace remains. For more information, see Link

Former pub, Upper Hill Street, Liverpool

The Alexandra Hotel had closed by 2008. In 2022 it was still disused, but looking a lot greener, no doubt enhancing local biodiversity, if nothing else.

Former church, Princes Road, Liverpool

Welsh Presbyterian Church, by W. & G. Audsley, 1868. Grade II listed. It has been derelict since the 1990s, and was still rotting away in 2022.

Ducie Street, Liverpool

One of numerous streets of Victorian terraced houses condemned to, or at least slated for, demolition under the misguided 'Pathfinder' initiative which ran from 2002 to 2011. Liverpool seems to have been more afflicted than anywhere else. In 2022, these houses were still standing, but were still empty and deteriorating.

Hatherley Street, Liverpool

One of numerous streets of Victorian terraced houses condemned to, or at least slated for, demolition under the misguided 'Pathfinder' initiative which ran from 2002 to 2011. Liverpool seems to have been more afflicted than anywhere else. By 2022, these houses had been renovated and, in a radical step, were being inhabited by human beings.

The Globe, Park Road, Liverpool

The pub was still open in 2022 although it has had a paint job since this photo.

Former pub, Park Road, Liverpool (1)

The Toxteth - the name survives on the Park Road front. Some nice ground floor detail has been lost in an unsympathetic conversion to offices, occupied by Central Liverpool Credit Union.

Former pub, Park Road, Liverpool (2)

On the corner of North Hill Street was a modest pub, the Queen's Head, which seems to have closed in 2008. Little changed in 2022 - only the flyposters have been active.
