Crosby in the 1960s

Posted by Crosby Herald newsdesk on July 18, 2008 4:11 PM | 

EVIDENCE of the changing face of Crosby Village can be seen in old photographs.
Here is a photograph of the corner of the village, at the top of Liverpool Road, taken in around 1966.

It was submitted by Peter Roome and was taken by his father Frank, also known as Ernie.
Peter said: "At the time it was clearly a place for sitting and watching the world go by.
"It shows my second favourite shop - Newtons the stationers.
"My favourite was Schofield's the toy and sports shop in the now demolished Central Buildings."
If anyone else has any photographs of Crosby Village from years gone by, send them to Crosby Herald, 43-47 Liverpool Road, Crosby, L23 5SD or by email to newsdesk@crosbyherald.co.uk
