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.
Voelas Street, Liverpool
One of the so-called Welsh Streets. And 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. These houses have subsequently been restored (the mature trees were sacrificed in the process), and new houses built on the south end of the street which had already been cleared (SJ3688 : Voelas Street, Toxteth).
Rhiwlas Street, Liverpool
One of the so-called Welsh Streets. And 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. These houses have subsequently been restored (the mature tree was sacrificed in the process), and new houses built on the south-east section of the street which had already been cleared.
Madryn Street, Liverpool
One of the so-called Welsh Streets. And 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. These houses have subsequently been restored (the tree was sacrificed in the process).
Kinmel Street, Liverpool
One of the so-called Welsh Streets. And 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. These houses have subsequently been restored.
Powis Street, Liverpool
One of the so-called Welsh Streets. And 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. These houses have subsequently been restored, and are no longer painted black.
This post-apocalyptic vision was due to the street having been used as a filming location for the TV series, 'Peaky Blinders'.
The Empress, High Park Street, Liverpool
Narrow pub. Being featured on the cover of a Ringo Starr album was not enough to save it - it has now joined the former off licence just across Wellington Terrace.
9-15 High Park Street, Liverpool
Former Toxteth Public Offices by Thomas Layland, 1865-66, in red sandstone. Grade II listed.
Now used as a community resource centre and given the moniker Toxteth Town Hall.
Former reservoir, High Park Street, Liverpool
Powerful retaining wall of what was Park Hill Reservoir, by Thomas Duncan, 1853. The tower, minus its conical roof, also survives. Grade II listed.
It now seems to be used as an event space.
The Pineapple Hotel, Park Road, Liverpool
Solid Italianate boozer on the corner of Moses Street.
The pub may already have closed when this photo was taken - a sign read "Public bar open as usual", but it didn't look open. It continued as a hotel, but has now probably been converted to flats.
334-338 Smithdown Road, Liverpool
Aka Holyoake Hall. Built for the Co-operative Society in 1914 and featuring lots of terracotta and fussy stone detail.
Mostly occupied by TriBeCa, a bar and pizzeria, which has failed to weather the various storms since this photo.
Lodges, Smithdown Lane, Liverpool
At the entrance to Toxteth Park Cemetery which was laid out in 1855-56 for the Toxteth Park Burial Board. Thomas D. Barry designed the buildings. Grade II listed.
