Birkenhead Rock Ferry


Never mind your footballers and pop stars of today, THIS is what being a hero is all about, and a Rock Ferry man too.




Two beautiful Rock Ferry lasses. The lovely young lass on the left bears a striking resemblance to my wife
Sue's grandmother pictured below on her wedding! I wonder?

Enjoyed looking at your photos. My mum was brought up in Bold Street, Rock Ferry (just up the road fron Rock ferry Pier) The road was demolished in the 1960's. I also lived in Egerton Park for a short time,I was about 4 years of age about 1948. We lived in the basement of a large house owned by a Mrs Binnie. In order to get a roof over our heads my dad had a full time job and did the garden for Mrs Binnie and mum cleaned the very large house. it has since been demolished and about 20 houses built on the site.
