That building facing the 40 steps as we used to know it as kids was my school. My grandmother and some of my aunties and uncles lived in the row of houses pictured on the left. Happy memories as a child. I lived just behind the school in Garden Lane which was demolished in the mid 60s.

….I remember that school very well. I also watched the tower blocks construction rising daily that must’ve been built on your old house.

….and when we moved from Everton it was to that council estate on the right hand side. Turn right at the top and you’re at Ken Dodd’s house.

I never saw Garden Lane getting knocked down because we had already moved before that. I know the row of houses on the left were knocked down and they built a block of flats there called John F Kennedy heights and my auntie lived there for a while.

…I sat on my front steps off Everton Rd and watched those flats getting built. So much had been demolished down to Shaw St, I could see clearly across to Everton Brow. I’m sure I played footy in your old school playground once or twice.

I went to a funeral of an old next door neighbour from Garden Lane a few months ago. They moved to Field street just off Everton Brow by the old Clock pub. The area has changed a lot since I lived there. I felt quite sad really and I also found out that a few of my childhood friends had passed away.
