Wiki-Wirral
« on: Saturday 25 March 23 12:05 GMT (UK) »
Has anyone had any dealings with this website.  I attempted to register on Thursday, and am still awaiting approval?

I am attempting to find a photograph of a house in Hoole Road, Hoole (now demolished I believe) where I was born in 1942 - The Shrublands.

Any thoughts anyone, pretty please?

Hi,

I believe it might be 87-89 (Nursing Home) - from 1939 Register entry, and i understand that it was on the corner of Hoole Road and Hamilton Street, next door to All Saints Church.

Hi,
I cannot see a photograph, sorry.  I do know where the Church is, Vicarage Road.

Thank you for looking.  I am waiting for a response from a site called Wirral-Wikiwirral.  The site appears to have a photograph but I have to register to access it and I'm awaiting confirmation that I can gain access.

On the 1911 Census "The Shrublands" (then a private residence pre nursing/maternity use) listed -

Sch. No. 18 - 85 Hoole Road
Sch. No. 19 - The Shrublands
Sch. No. 20 - Glenhurst
- - All Saints Church

Both Shrublands and Glenhurst identified as 12 roomed properties.

I asked Hoole History & Heritage Society site if they had a photograph.  The answer was that they didn't, but they gave me a location map from NLS.  This is part of it in order to pinpoint.
