2 old Liverpool (Toxteth) addresses
« on: Tuesday 12 August 08 13:53 BST (UK) »
Wondering if anyone lives in the area whether they knew if either of these houses were still there, and if they were the originals from the dates below or whether they've been replaced with newer houses. Looking at the live maps view, seems they might be newer than the dates I have?

(1861) - 95 Warwick Street

(1871) - 147 Wellington Road

Unsure if this will help, but it's a good resource to have:

There are some amazing old streetview photos - click on the red arrows on the maps.

95 Warwick Street is the third house from Chiltern Street – just above the second W of warWick - on this map http://www.toxteth.net/maps/liverpool/lpool2b.htm

If you find Warwick Street on Google Maps and switch to satellite view, you will see that it is long gone.

UPDATE: 147 Wellington Road is next but one to the corner of Greaves Street on this map - http://www.toxteth.net/maps/liverpool/lpool4c.htm on the corner nearest the school, which was John the Baptist National School (in 1881).

Thanks for those Ken, that's great!

Warwick Street is definitely gone as you say, and Wellington Road looks like there is work going on there right now...

Wellington Road

As he was a teacher I wonder if he worked at the school next door, would make sense I suppose.

So Ken, it looks like if you click on the second arrow up Wellington Road, which shows a photo of the school, you JUST miss out on seeing the house that Spongebob is looking for!  Undecided
