Fantastic to find this. I was 9 yrs old when this was filmed living in Caird Street

[vonroon23]

I grew up and went to school in this area and lived there until 1981. Who shot this film and why?

[davlin2]

Hi Von

My brother and I shot this on our cine cameras 1965 as a keep sake of our home in Margaret St.....

These are fantastic! One query though....at 6:25 in this footage there's a dark-coloured 'Arrow'-model Singer Vogue. These didn't go on sale until October 1966!!!

I lived in Eastbourne st at the top of Everton Brow, Seeing Margret St reminded me that no matter how filthy you were if your feet were clean you could go swimming! 3d for a swim 6d for a bath with soap and a towel

I have sent the link to my brother in the USA.

Thanks

Hi adman

It's great to hear from people who lived in the areas of the vid.....it somehow makes it a lot more personal and helps to bring it all to life again.

Glad you enjoyed it and Hughes St. ...you are correct in the assumptions of Churches in background and far distance shots.

Have a great time over xmas to you and all your family.

Davlin mate, you are a star for posting this video! Like Tiny wrote, it's an excellent piece of the social history of Liverpool. I almost fell off my chair when I saw Hughes Street! That was were I lived as kid in number 16. I saw SFX church in the background, but I think I also caught a few glimpses of Emmanuel Church on West Derby Rd.

Hi Damian

Glad you like it

cheers

[tinysstupidstunts25]

Excellent social history of Liverpool - I grew up in those streets - I use to use Margeret street baths - You showed the shops and the water tower. Memories came flooding back. I think I will do a video of then and now ! It would be good to compare the streets and places (The ones that are left) to the area now ! We just took slums for granted in those days. What does come across is how smart the lads use to be ! Shirt and tie and tailor made suits, We saved up for months for a suit. 5 woodies !

[davlin2]

Hi "tiny"

I'm pleased you liked it.

I too was a user of baths and we did look smarter in those days especially on a Sunday.

Yep all had to "made to measure" and cost a bloody fortune....I think "Jacksons" was one of the most used by us.......5 woodies please or maybe a loosie.....lol
