1890: Plan of Liverpool – South Sheet

I have been looking for Vaughn Street that was in the 1911 Census

Thank you,

My Dad was born in Upper Stanhope Street in 1925. I think between Berkely and Windsor streets.
I have seen a map that showed there was a continuation, and this is very odd, of Stanhope street, at the location of what looked like Maynard Street , to the North side of Beaumont Street, sometime before, then I lost track of this particcular map. We lived in 26 Beaumont Street in the mid to late 50's, 4 stories of cold Victorian red brick, we left there to sail to Australia in '58, returned in 62 and our family of 5 lived in appaling accomodation in 2 rooms on the corner of Alt and Cam Street, yards from where we set off from; I went to Dove Street Primary behind St. Clements Church from 55 to 58, many years later I was the last student into the old Art High School on Gambier Terrace opposite the C of E Cathdral, in 1964.
This is a fantastic store of information of Liverpool. As an architect I find the collection of listed buildings just incredible. I know most of them through wandering around the town when in my teens before I left for college in 69. If there is anything I can do to help, email me.

When did the name Baltic Triangle first appear? By the site of the Baltic Pub on the old dock road? Nothing saying "Baltic" on the map.

Hi Martin,
I've been researching my family history and in the 1891 and 1901 England census it has my family located in Royden Street, Toxteth Park. This was located in St Cleopas Parish and surrounding streets (as per the census) were Barclay, Homer, Stepford and Hurry streets as well as Parkhill Road. I have found St Cleopas parish and Parkhill Road on a couple of maps but haven't been able to locate Royden Street.

I would like to know where Upper Man Street was. I believe it doesn’t exist any longer. This is where my Great Grandma Howard lived when she was first married, and was there until 1916.

Hi I am trying to find the earliest map with Hadassah Grove . It is off Lark Lane therefore this map just misses it. We think my house was built in 1830 to 1840 but cant find this on maps.

Im looking for any photos of Collins street number 11 my great grandmother and family lived there the Weavers cant find any on web sites , Great grandmother came from LLanelidan N Wales Great grandfather from Chester area

What a wonderful site this is. My 3x great grandparents lived in Court 3 Upper Stanhope Street in 1881 and 1891, but I am struggling to find anything at all relating to court housing here. Any info would be most greatly appreciated! Kind regards x

Does this map cover Garston please?

My father was born in 9 Summer Seat in 1904 to Lithuanian immigrants who spoke no English. I remember my Lithuanian grandparents living in the end flat on the second or maybe third storey of a block of tenements with steel railings along each balcony and a tarmaced area out front where you could play. I remember gas mantles used for lighting and a rubbish chute from the inside of the flat down to the ground floor. I read that Summer Seat were the oldest terraced houses in Liverpool built in 1911 so was 9 Summer Seat on my father's birth certificate the address of the tenement block in the same area? I would have been visiting my grandmother 1946 to 1950.

I have discovered an old letter tucked inside an antique book that is from....
50 Sir Thomas buildings, Liverpool and is dated 18th August 1890.
The letter goes on to say , the committee members (and then goes on to name the 14 members) have the pleasure of enclosing tickets for the Pic-Nic to Overton hills on 1st September ... dinner will be served at the Belle Monte hotel at 1-30.....and then gives further information about the day.
I can see that there’s a Sir Thomas Street .... but no longer a 50 Sir Thomas Buildings. ?
I can always scan a copy of the letter to an email if you feel it’s an interesting historical document Or maybe someone will have information on the 14 committee members from 1890.

Dear Martin,
This is a long shot. We lived in Myrtle Street (from 1960 to June 1966) above a wool shop on the corner of Myrtle street and Vine street with a Higsons pub (The Grapes ) on the opposite corner to us on Vine Street/Myrtle Street. I've been trying to find any information about the wool shop and any photos of the building that we lived in.

The closest I've got was seeing a Pathe News video on you tube. -

It zooms in at 22 seconds to show what I think is the side of the wool shop with the grapes pub demolished. I've found a photo of The Vines pub but nothing showing the wool shop or the rest of the terraced houses attached. I know the wool shop was part of the area that Liverpool University demolished to make way for student accommodation. ( The now new buildings have the 92 degrees coffee shop at the other end of the row.) Not sure if the wool shop was always a shop and flat, presume it was a large house at one time. There was a Council corporation yard on Vine Street which was next door to the wool shop side entrance.

Any ideas where I could find any more information about the history of this building and maybe some photos?
With many thanks and best wishes.
Anne

My Family history is in Toxteth dating back to early 1800s ( Daly.) with relatives moving there from Yorkshire( Lonsdale) and Ireland (Daly.) I have found lots of dwellings for them and names of roads. Collins Street, Beaufort , Hughson, Wolfe, and a few more. I Know my Grt G P and Grandparents are in Allerton Cemetery. Grandfather's worked on the Docks as Merchant Sea men and labourers. I have ships names and 1WW medals. it is great to pin point areas on the maps. Fernie St was the last know building. I was also born in , now demolished would love some more info on the docks ,ships been searching for ships pictures and lists trying to find.pictures of the Vitorian.

Hello have been looking through all above messages and you knowledge is amazing. I don't know much about the maps but I was looking for Dryden St where my maternal grandparents lived in the 1950s and also another address 69 Selbourne (St or Rd) do your maps cover these for the period up to 1950.
would be lovely to hear from you. thank you

Hello,
I am researching my family tree and this map covers exactly the streets where my family lived. Am I allowed to download a full copy please? I wouldn't be using the map for any commercial purpose, just personal research.
I did try to download it, without success. Just in case I'm doing something wrong, would you be able to talk me through the steps to save a full copy.
Many thanks.

Hi,
I'm afraid it's not possible to download the whole image at once as it's made up of lots of small square files, which helps it load faster.
My best advice is to click the 'full screen' icon (the one which looks like a square in the top left of the map) and take a screenshot.
Best wishes,
Martin
