Old Photos Of Where You Live



Bibbys - They once owned all of Court Hey Park Childwall - & hired Garden Staff to maintain it plus had a walled orchard & greenhouses when the two managing directors had two detached 4-bedroom houses at the top of the park leading to a tree nursery & Vernon pools - leased it to Huyton UDC for a nominal fee for 50 years - as long as it was kept as park land -
I started my apprenticeship in the early 1970s for Huyton Parks Department - some of the original Bibby's staff were kept on as part of the deal - Bibby's still had a building where they used prize Bulls for sperm technicalities, with two staff members - they were a massive empire back then in Agriculture feed etc - here is their original headquarters in Liverpool -
