Lived there from 1954 to 1985, Wirral used to be a nice place in the distant past as it has changed and not for the better [that applies to most places these days] Good video

When my mother brought us back from unhappy evacuation in 1939, it was the sight of those blue buses that told me I was home.

Wow loved this. Thanks Mark. Funny though started watching this thinking I used to know someone called Mark Wyatt who lived in my Road when I was a kid. Realised you're that person. I lived opposite you at number 15 next to the passage way, Different house but still live there today. Fab film .

Great video! I was born and bred on the Wirral from 1956 to 1983. I used to collect the bus numbers!

Well done Mark, as someone who has lived on the Wirral all my life, I really enjoyed this and its historical pictures. Top Marks. No pun intended.

Used to live Wirral from 1947-1963, Buses used to run to New Brighton from in front of Bebington Station numbered 12, 51 & 55 ran from Port Sunlight Station to Park Royal and No 50 ran to Spital Crossroad and the No 58 ran all the way to Clatterbridge Hospital and came back round the triangle back to Spital Cross Road, the 64 was a great journey as was the 44 single decker....there was Crosville from Rock Ferry to Ellesmere Port, Chester and Helsby & Frodsham as well as Heswall and Neston with a single decker to Ellesmere Port thru Eastham and Hooton and also via Stoke & Stanney passing Chester Zoo en route to Chester. They all stopped in front of Odeon Cinema in front of Cathedral...I could write a book on the Wirral...

That was one of the best Wirral videos I've ever seen, very well edited. Greasby Junior School in appearance is like Brackewood Junior School in Bebington, probably built by the same buider in the early 1950s.

The days when you could swim in a lake, why can't you do that now?. Been to West Kirby a few times and it has a very snobby vibe about it, not surprising when you see all the million pound property prices. One of the most unfriendliest places I've been to.
