Hi all
Would any one be able to tell me were I can find a photo of Westminster rd Kirkdale in or around 1910 or what the houses were like, as my great grand aunt lived at 234 and according to the 1911 census it had seven rooms so I guess it was a good size. I did look on google and found a house on street view that would have been across the road number 238 sadly 234 is no longer there, I would just like to know if it would have been the same sort of house.
kind regards Sue

For photos, the Record Office can be a good source - local authorities take photographs for various reasons, planning and redevelopment for example..

If you google Westminster Road again, from the Pub on the corner, the 5th house up (with the green roof trim) has wheelie bins outside with No. 234 on them....that's maybe the house your after.

Sorry, but your going to be out of luck with 318 Westminster Road being on google street view.
The houses numbered 326 and 328 are there, but they, along with the rest on that side of the road, right down to the Pharmacy at No. 310/312 are much newer built.
Must have had some regeneration take place, but I don't know when.
Peter's good advice about contacting the record office might be your quickest route to finding any old photo's of Westminster Rd that may be available - why not send an email asking Liverpool R/O if they have any among their records?
