Does anyone know where Fuscos ice cream parlour was in county road area cc1955

whats the name of the song please

Lovely cheers Ed, Buchanan's toy shop, Granada, Azad & Video City we're my days but lovely to see the years beyond. Unfortunately the area has become run down over the recent years and once E.F.C move on from Goodison Park I fear for the entire of County Road. A cracking family The May's originally from Breck Road have been trying to revive certain parts which is nice to see. Thanks for the upload.

i am from that place.

i am from that place.

I lived the other end of county road ....opposite the Astoria cinema..1977 to 1987...Woodhouse close..........time flies...wow!!!

shitt hole now

enjoyed that. Saw Hampden street were Nanetts was. Happy days raiding the bins for bits of netting for my dolls

I was born in peveril street and lived the till 1970 then went to live in skelmersdale to a bran new house with a bathroom and hot water

smart Flemings jean jackets & parallels, an' some world class Harry Quinn racingbikes 70's !

A few of my relatives lived off county road, oxton street, neston street, I also drank down there in the 80's....better days then..I remember getting cockles from Charles fish shop and buying records with my mum from creases music shop, Macmillan's wool shop, hunts fruit and veg and Freeman hardy Willis were just a few shops I remember on the road, every Saturday I'd go into barnes for my sweets, they had a great selection....I lived in Everton myself but I remember county road buzzing years ago and a good community, everyone knew each other......better days then not like now, knife crime and shootings are out of hand now....who remembers Mary on the hand cart at the bottom of oxton street.....💖

Nice pictures. We lived off Rice Lane on the other side of the Queens Drive roundabout but I went to school at Alsop Lower from 1975 to 1977 so used to walk up County Road every day. Nice to see the Merry-go-Round toy shop, that was where my mum and dad used to get all our Christmas presents from. Also remember Tony's chippy just a short way down from the Hale Road/Stuart Road junction, their food was the best - chicken omelette, prawn curry half-and-half, fantastic. Went back there in the summer of 2018 after many years living down south and found it quite depressing now.

Ahh, that was great, song also brilliant, can't remember the group name though, I'm losing it.

The singer is Liverpools Pete Wylie

In 1968, when we were in the 5th. form, Alsop High School, now and again (money permitting) we used to nip over to the transport cafe (the one shown in the first photo, opposite Walton church) for a ciggy and a cup of tea. `Out of bounds` and smoking, it even made the watery tea taste good!!

The official end of the the Summer holidays when when I was dragged to Freeman Hardy & Willis for school shoes.

Lovely to see County Road from my childhood in the 1970s. My Mum, Auntie Do, Nan and Grandad lived in a flat above 'Meeson's'- I have such happy remembrances of my days spent there. The outside lavvie, Nan banging her feet on the stairs to scare away mice before descending for a wee! Does anyone remember 'Ooby-Do's'? A store selling everything from haberdashery to the piggy bank my sister chose for her birthday. They had the cash system where money was woodshed upwards in a brass cylinder (don't know what that was called). Many years later, I had friends who lived off county road and had some fantastic times during the late 80s, too.
Thank you so much for uploading this, it's been a delightfully nostalgic time.

Hi Greg, what a great video. Thank you for sharing. At 1m59 seconds there is a photo of my Grandpa's shop at 228 County Road - Morrows. Is there any way I could have a copy of the photo please?

I lived @ 85CountyRd my parents had the "County Fish and Chip" opposite Morrows and Sayers for 35yrs

I recollect Bascombe's I would save up and by dinky cars

Think the song was Pete Wiley and the mighty wah

So sad to compare these pics with County Road in 2023… Liverpool needs to go on a massive litter pickup, the city is a pigsty

Did my 2 year YTS at the Burton store on the corner .after getting off the 60 bus ...i used to love the walk of a morning from rice lane flyovver up county road passed all the shops and pubs .....best chippy in the world was a few shops down from the royal oak

The regression an sorry lookimg state of our areas now is scary after looking at theses old photos scary really

Anyone remember Clarkes shoe shop in the 60's? Also Kay Nelson?

This was on my beat, from Westminster Road Police Station, when l was a young officer, back in the day..loved it, and the people..x

How many times I went shopping with Mum... Still love my area...always be with me..
