113 to 117 Park Road, Toxteth - a photo on Flickriver

113 to 117 Park Road, Toxteth

113 - (scaffolded) It looks like this building has now been demolished after being derelict for years. It used to be a well proportioned town house based on the Amsterdam canal house model (with a narrow frontage but quite tall at three storeys high, topped off with a “Dutch” gable). A rare survivor of its type in this part of Liverpool but now another sad loss.

115 – this handsome four bay stone clad building is a former branch of the Liverpool Savings Bank (later TSB)

117 – This premises has been a motor vehicle body repair shop for decades

Years ago I used to go regularly to the swimming baths located opposite this block. At that time I noticed quite a few small buildings of high architectural merit on Park Road, although they were nearly all in a very poor state of repair even then. It’s disappointing that most of them have since been demolished due to being in danger of collapse, as here. Lost assets to the neighbourhood (and City). The buildings at numbers 109 & 111, which were once located to the left in my picture, were among the best small period houses in the whole of Toxteth in my opinion.
