Its so depressing to see all those solid houses falling into disrepair when there's so many living in substandard housing or on the streets. Just can't get my head round it. Thanks for the vid ❤

I grew up in Mirfield Street Kensington in the late 60's early 70's It was a fantastic place to live.. Heartbreaking to see it like this 😢

I put the steel on them windows back in 2006. Cant believe their still there. Some of the sights in them houses was crazy. Especially the big gaffs on Edge Lane that was open crack houses.

Worked on many houses around there billy underpinning crack repairs, used to need protection to stop your tools and machinery from getting robbed, thanks for the video billy.

Shiel Road just kept on going, it was a great street back in the day, full of nice people and decent tidy suburbs. It continued right down Belmont Road and crossed Breck Road where I lived, right behind Paddy Clifftons Restaurant “ The Oliver Twist “ and opposite “ Ohares “ The Jewlers. The pub called the George was on the other side, with a great mate of mine “ Freddie Thommo “ working behind the Bar and keeping everyone in line. I myself lived in Jupiter Close, the beginning of Murder Mile.....lol . I loved living there, everyone was friendly and respectful, all the kids were great, JoJo ( a Tomboy ) the best footy player in the Close, little Ollie who kept an eye on my car on match day for me. Tidy Anne who was Jojos hot older sister lol, the list goes on, I could sing the praises of the area all day Bill, thanks for the memories lad, love your show. Keep them coming 👍🏼

Hi Bill, I grow up in old swan mid 70s mid 80s but don't ever remember it like this pal ,cheers for videos bill

Love those old buildings,what a shame to see them in such disrepair, why,how ,?

Nice video mate, keep these types going. It will hopefully help raise awareness that certain neighborhoods are in need of support. The Merseyside Police and UK Gov are useless as they waste the day arresting or harassing innocent people, instead of actually trying to fix a problem. Taxes are also used wrongly!

Great insight in to these areas, cheers brother my favourite Scouser 🍻

Great video Bill, can you do a Lark Lane one in the future,keep them coming love them👍👍

Great content. The south has deprived areas as well, but we don’t have the number of boarded up buildings. Not row after row anyway.

Great vid thanks Billy, I grew up in 80s lived off Shiel Road was a good area , good working class people, sad to see the demise of

Me and my mate who works with wood got in the Welshie ( church on the Av ) and got loads of benches out years ago. He sanded and varnished them all and make nice money selling them.

Another great vlog with very interesting content Bill. Hope you're all keeping ok out there. All the best 👍😎

Another good video Billy it is so sad to see such beauty in its days is just sitting rotting away😢😢

Hi bill big Everton fan from HULL I watch your vlogs big RESPECT MATE

Now then, good video Billy keep showing I keep watching Lad 4 days and counting 😵‍💫

I worked in Toxteth in the late 80's on Granby Action, the refurbishment of the houses, and it was very, very good what they ended up as, very nice. I went away, for a few years to do some work down south, and when I came back what a mess someone had made of Toxteth.

Liverpool has great parks especially Croxteth 👍🏾

When we left Bosnia during the war, we stayed near Park Lane,, but 2017 we came to watch Hajduk at Goodison I could find no trace - he mentioned a few pubs and also the "Nigerian club" - I think that is long gone now? Granby Street so different too Hope to be in Liverpool in April 🙋‍♀️

Hiya billy , tomo from Lancaster , I was out with a friend of your judders, punky from Lancaster he was in the disbursals with him, all the best lad 👍🏻

All those beautiful buildings empty and derelict. So sad. People carry on living their lives, though, don't they Billy? Thanks for another great video. Pete 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Walked from my city center hotel to st anns in kensington, first time in Britian , great walk to my grt granpas old neighborhood. But when i got to kensington the mood changed,felt like any typical american large city,with better architecture.

Calderstones, Allerton Road is Liverpool it's nice there.the georgian quarter hope Street some lovely places .the amount of students who when qualified never leave and set up home here is a credit to our city.

When I lived in Entwistle Granby was really busy and lively. It was a great community.

It’s like every city you got good and bad areas I live for drop and I walk my dog down Princess Parks Sefton Park. I live not far from Saint Jameses Park. I’ve walked down Smithtown Road and some parts there looks a bit rough in Birmingham they have some really bad ones and like you said that one does look like American Hopefully they start to clean it up and make the city look a bit better because we’re getting a lot of tourist and I don’t think the bus go around that area do they and thank you for sharing that it’s good to see around the area you take care 😊👍

Our new Wool Mayor prides himself on being the MP for Kenny for the last 15 years or so. What are we letting happen to our city people? We need to start practicing what we preach and pulling together before we end up like the mancs- a minority in our own City. And before people put words in my mouth yes we are being pushed out and any re scouser knows that we embarrass the council as they aren't really any better than the Tory snobs either anymore.Wake up 💪🏻👍🏻🇬🇧🍻Luv yas all💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Moved further north in late 90s. But Newsham Park will always be beautiful!

Great video, Billy. Council need to step up to the mark and address some of the issues we face. Some good people in those areas, being let down by the City council and others.

People make Slums .....

Maybe next time go to Childwall, aigburth, allerton etc and show some of the nicer more prosperous areas of our city.

One of them houses on granby used to have a community garden inside it can't remember which one

Billy what's anfield, goodison and Scott road like now?

Most of the UK is rundown. And they dont know how to fix it.

Carstairs rd, Carstairs is the state hozzy in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Billy, there’s a wee nugget for the viewers mate😊. Wow some rough scenes and good info from yourself there mate, keep up the good viewing billy ✌️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

One of the sad things, some of these houses are beautiful, well built, and are still standing strong 100-150 yrs after they were built! Most of the shitty, pebbledashed, estates they built in the 70s started falling apart within 10 years! How much of Everton Brow, Kenny Estate, etc is still standing? And they say they didn't cut corners! Fkn joke councils throughout Britaoin lining their pockets while their communities and policing in them were underfunded and left to rot.

Kensington and Toxteth have been run down areas since I was a child and I'm 61 now. You will always get good natured decent people living in L8 and L7 but give many of them an opportunity to move, I think they would jump at it. Bringing young children up down there can't be easy.

Solid houses those Bill, don't forget PRINCESS AVENUE had some magnificent churches , synagogues, civic buidings etc, magnificent Georgian houses at the top end as well, shame !

Not into graffiti all over residential properties it's Wokeism.

Is Sam doing work highlighting the state of our communities Billy? Genuinely interested in highlighting communities/ home environment where I am. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Anyway Billy, I appreciate the time you’re taking to spotlight conditions of where our youngsters are being ‘brought up’ (if that is the right term…) 🙏

Just sit and have a shit ha ha quality mate great video

It’s very sad really all them empty houses going to waste and so many homeless and young family’s can’t get houses and have to live with family . X

from tocky all my life bill,when i was a kid there was that many houses boarded up around our way the window cleaner had a sander...BRUMCHEE!

If i ever fancy a weekend in Liverpool i will hire you Bill as my personal security.

Lived in prescot Road and school in Sheil Road had friends in the houses there and in Geneva Road. Its a shame the way its been left to rot Forgotten by those in government not interested in the people or the city its so sad heartbreaking.

I met some top lad from Toxteth in 81, 82 in Dyson Hall

You say every area is the “worst in Liverpool”. That area there is bad due to immigration and not a real representation of Liverpool or scousers, as hardly anyone round there is from Liverpool.

That toothbrush and toothpaste near the used condoms? 🤮I couldn’t help thinking about Wendy in Breaking Bad in the mouthwash scene!

Why is the Government so Persistant in " Building New Houses " all the time ? Those buildings right there are Beautiful - I HATE to see such Properties going to Wrack and Ruin... #SHAME #LIVERPOOL #UK

,overlook has its dark side. I’m from Birkenhead

It’s sad billy the state of the houses and they aren’t doing anything with them and yes we have loads of homeless in and around Liverpool 🙏👍

Sam's face when he landed on London Road 😲😲😆what was he filming Billy?

Yes bill stay safe lar

The glayray was on parli bill as was all the clubs years ago

4:55 Midnight to six man, first time from Jamaica, Dillinger & Leroy Smart, Delroy Wilson your cool operator" Name that tune Billy? I'm living on Kenny but closer to town, we're one of the holdouts who won't sell the house so they can gut it & fill it with student flats.

Is it really 2024?

Noticed a lot of council CCTV in those areas you've shown. Says it all really but at least its there.

It's like we're going back in time Billy ...it's sad 😔

What a shame I'm from salford and thought that was a shit whole, live in wigan now though also just subscribed Billy 👍

These areas have been completely abandoned. However, this is part of a plan to redevelop the area in the next two or three decades. Governments, and councils, plan so far ahead, and these areas are deliberately run down, leaving them economically attractive to the developers. It would not surprise me if the highways agency already has plans in place for new roads in the areas featured.

It's not the houses that are bad it's the people that live in the area

U looking for the new family gaff bill, what's the garden like 😢

So many empty houses, and there's families needing homes living in hotels sad 😔

So depressing Billy being over to greater Manchester recently from Ireland for a funeral was shocking how bad it was i remember it back in the day 80s it's totally fucked now terrible

There was a scheme were you could buy a house for a pound and do it up,looks like they could bring it back here.

I got married 43 years ago in St Philips and David's church

Keep these videos coming bill. Liverpool City council should be ashamed to receive their salarys/envelopes.

I grew up in St Domingo Grove off Oakfield rd Billy and can’t believe what’s happened to it last 20yrs 🥺 It was never posh but Jeez🤯

Ive never been liverpool but if l do l wont be passing by any of these areas billy cheers 😂

The brasses are the neighbourhood watch

So sad since they broke up the community's of L.8 born n raised there Granby was always lively n bustling all the shops from top to bottom on either side were occupied ..everyone knew everyone .. best place to live loads of culture used to go the Parks princess n Sefton aged 9/10/11 with me 2 sisters never felt any danger ...

Mate this was bleak. I like the way even though when it's a depressing subject you try and put a little bit of hope and positivity in your videos 👍

Its sinful how they let Ducie street go like that for many years great houses my mate had a flat there in the 70s great flat. Its a great area though

Toxteth going like Detroit Michigan.

Why is there so many churches in liverpool? I mean I live in a relatively big city (leeds) and we don't seem to have nowhere near as many.

All those buildings! A wee bit investment from council could create a few beds fr the homeless.

To be fair Billy this could be any town or city in the UK.

The scarp yard is the rastamans garden 👍🏻😂🇪🇹🦁

It's amazes me how councils everywhere can let house's go to rot when there's so many living on the street's and others crying out for housing.

Such a shame, some of them houses are solid not like the houses they throw up now. Council shamed, never looked after the city, let it go to sh##. Embarrassed by it!

Some of them sites look like The Opocalypse 3 Rd World

Kennys rough as fuk init 😂😂

Wow so depressing 😢

Tell Sam to get in touch with me i will show him the best of Liverpool and i will miss out Crosby to boot

I was born and brought up in Kenny and went to school in toxteth my god it’s changed for the worst 😡

I grew up in Kenny an I love most of our people in Liverpool but the city is going downhill to many wannabe gangsters about most Liverpool people are good people but personally I think the atmosphere of Liverpool is negative and there’s various reasons for that

How can Liverpool shitty? Council allow this to happen was born in Kensington not to far from where billy is and back in the 60s Shiel Road was a good place to live as you can see lovely big Edwardian Victorian dwellings moved away when I was 10 but that area was still looked after can not believe how run down it has been allowed to go very very sad

Your right id say Kensington and Toxteth and parts of Breck road Everton and some of the worst area's in Liverpool. Allerton, Woolton and Childwall are the best area's you can live

Sam may aswell have a big sign over his shoulder saying rob me please 😂. It would probably attract less attention than that big expensive camera.

The side of Shield rd you are on and showing is Fairfield not Kensington , Kensington ends at Shield rd then it becomes Prescot rd Fairfield

My road ha

Billy there's a whisky bar round there were all the smackheads go in an inject there gear, it's rough as toast and dangerous

Billy it's not as bad as your making it out to be! I've walked around those areas all hours of the day and night and never had a problem. Beware of outsiders trying to belittle our city! Looks like your helping them with it

Imagine your man trying walk round filming in granby back in the day ,he might of walked away if he was lucky with his undies on

Twinned with Kensington in America?

Who owns all these empty houses, how did they end up like this? they must be worth a fortune if in good condition

Billy U will like this one, I think I need to stop watching your channel, cos I was talking to me brother earlier and he's burst out laughing, and I gone straight on the offensive what you fcuken laughing at he's gone what's wit Scouse accent, I went from hero to zero, from my original height of six, two down to just the two in less than a nano second cos I didn't even realise I was doing it, it was fuckin funny though. Haha 😂💙👍💯.

now tjs gone bill final nail in the coffin of that area round london rd

Ha u just walked past my house

Proud to be Scouse, just not proud to see the city the way it’s going
