Hi jimmy mac (motown fan by any chance?)
Thanks for the info.Sorry for slow response. Christmas & all that stuff, you know!

The farm could well be the one.......I remember visiting as a small child.......it was a typical symmetrical house with a path leading from the front gate, through the centre of the garden, to a door in the middle front of the house, with a small porch over and windows at either side.Seem to recall it was red brick.
When I was little my lasting memory is of a garden full of daffodils ( I think we must have always visited at easter time!)
It's over 40 years since I was last there, but I can still smell those daffs now.....

Guessing you live in the area?

Thanks, Bob!
I suppose fuller could be considered worse. At least my ancestor didn't have to climb into the stuff!

Hi there
No I don't live in Southport but was sufficiently intrigued by my ancestors lives to visit last year, (just after the posting about Little London,actually).
I found a most helpful estate agent (yes, really!) who gave me a map and sent myself and my other half off in the right direction. Apparently. the area around London Street and London Square ( town centre - ish ) was known as Little London years ago.
One of them married a widow from Castle Street, which is very near by, so that convinced me that the info was correct.
Hope this is helpful.
Cheers
Carol
P.S. LOVE Southport!

Hi LIzzy
Yes I did briefly have to give first aid, but the police took over the job when they arrived. Seems such a long time ago now and I'm pleased to say that I did feel better the next day. Thanks for your concern and advice.

Since then I've been involved in an accident myself.Nowhere near as horrific as what I came across, but it took a while to get over, even though it was the other driver at fault, you still lose confidence in your own ability as a driver!The physical stuff heals if you're lucky, but the emotional scars stay with you.....
